A Thylacine is also known as a Tasmanian Tiger or Tasmanian Wold, and is a marsupial. Thus, it is more related to animals like kangaroos and koalas than wolves and tigers.The largest land predator is the Polar Bear I think, although Polar Bears often hunt in or near water to catch seals and the like.

For polar bear, I meant largest living current predator, should have been more specific, so I was answering your third question.

Lol I am getting lazy. So the third question include water carnivores too. In that case, it would be the Sperm Whale, which dives to great depths to try to catch giant squid.

Very interesting question. This is a complete guess, but I am going to guess Homo Sapiens (humans). There are billions of us on the planet and we have huge farms just to raise hordes of animals for us to eat.

krill is the main diet of blue whales. they are little tiny crustaceans that kinda look like shrimp. and...possibly a megalodon for the largest predator? basically a big ass shark[over 60 ft long]

For question nr2:How about the lemmings? It's more a myth then anything that came here from Norway (our neighbour) that they throw themselves in the lake to make sure only the strong survive and to reduce the overpopulation.Reason for edit: added more.

Going to take on the second as well, could it be some sort of spider which name I forgot? They give birth to their little ones then kill themselves from their poison so that their kids have something to eat?Hm, it is a cute picture but all I can see it that it's a bearlike creature

Well no spiders aren't really what i meant but maybe they are.I also thought of that.But that's a good reason to die.I'll say its often a stupid reason to die.Just take a fuess Its meant to be a deviation from the normal serious animal questions (Its sort of a joke but not really)Q.How do you make sure that your crocodile baby (Still in an egg) will grow up to be a man?Q.Who's that cute fella?(1 pt)Q.Which 2 species of animals commit suicides the most and on the largest scale?

Is it by chance a brown bear? I know that I made a random guess, but that picture just remind me of a bear.
