I have a question ¿Didn't bears migrate southwards, or was that something that happened much later?
I was kind of surprised the first sentence said:

Central American cervids: 2 genera, 4 species
South American cervids: 6 genera, 16 species
Eurasian cervids: 10 genera — Alces, Axis, Capreolus, Cervus, Dama, Elaphodus, Elaphurus, Hydropotes, Muntiacus, Rangifer — 36 species

There are some improvements that could be made to the lists of successful invaders. The section headings refer to species but many of the listed organisms are genera or even higher taxanomic groupings. I think that higher taxonomic groups are more usefully listed than individual species as genera might have moved up or down and speciated; thus the species didn't successfully invade, but its genera did.

Is there any possibility that a section of the interchanging of different genera of plants could be added, or is the research in this area too scant? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.58.8.200 ( talk) 17:52, 19 November 2008 (UTC)
The Discovery Channel program Mega Beasts mentions a type of wolf called Edward's wolves, which modern wolves descended from. I can't find anything out about them, but the program says that they were resident in North America with Saber-toothed cats when the terror birds migrated north. They eventually out-competed both.-- Auric ( talk) 17:29, 8 January 2010 (UTC)
Do the daggers symbolize extinct animals? If so, is there a consensus to use the symbol this way? -- John ( talk) 20:14, 14 August 2011 (UTC)
Does anyone have any insight into the unusual pattern of recent pageviews for the article? WolfmanSF ( talk) 07:39, 21 February 2017 (UTC)

Plants too participated in the biotic interchange, e.g. Quercus (oaks) moved south to Colombia. We should probably have a section on plants here. Chiswick Chap ( talk) 09:27, 5 October 2023 (UTC)
