[QUOTE=_Maverick_;36750822]biggest/most dangerous thing i could think of. i'm sure other fossil fuel reactors have safe guards as well but those surly can't last forever[/QUOTE] Thats not how a reactor works. The word reactor implies a reaction, a reaction inside of a silo can't continue to react unless maintained because it doesn't have fuel. I'm sure they won't last forever, but you won't need them after about 2 hours-1 week depending on the reactor.
Cats.
Dolphins. Those fuckers will evolve arms and legs and take over the fucking world
[QUOTE=ironman17;36751330]Regardless, unless dolphins became land animals, they would be unable to even come close to utilizing metallurgy; I mean seriously, underwater metallurgy is a LAUGHABLE concept at best, how the hell would it even work?[/QUOTE] Is it? Underwater vents can reach up to around 800 degrees Fahrenheit, thats enough to melt a couple basic metals such as zinc, lead, and tin. The latter of which is strong enough to make very basic tools in large enough quantities.

The latter of which is strong enough to make very basic tools in large enough quantities.[/QUOTE] I thought about that, but then again how would they mine the ore, let alone smelt alloys without getting seriously burned? They'd need arms to work the forge. Also, managed to refine the theory a little; to form the racehood tetrahedron, omnivorism would be an important factor. Herbivores don't always have hunting instincts; they simply consume the plants of the land, supposedly distinguishing between edible things and poisonous stuff. Carnivores are all about the hunt, making plans and killing prey, but they have very little plant in their diet. Omnivores on the other hand have the best of both worlds; they hunt and forage, eating both meat and plant for a balanced diet, being able to adapt their eating habits if one source of food becomes scarce, so it's likely that omnivorous lifeforms have a greater chance of survival, and a better chance to make The Leap.
Zombies.

The dinosaurs will come out of hiding and retake what was once theirs.
Would anything? I'm sure if all humans died, critical objects such as powerplants, chemical plants etc. would pretty much wreak havoc with no supervision and check-ups. Poisoned, radioactive lands.
The robots. They're just waiting for us to die....

Cockroaches.
Nobody or no thing "rules" the planet, we just "rule" our own society. We're all just here, co-existing with the rest of life here. It's only the common Human ego which gives people the sense that we fucking own everything. This seems somewhat relevant. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eScDfYzMEEw[/media]
Purple Crown and MIPS would rule the earth. They aren't human.

I just got a great image of a bunch of wolves packed into cubicles.
If all humans died,no race would rule the earth,except figuratively (like in the case of dinosaurs "Ruling the earth").The world would just resume its truly natural circle of life,just as it was before humans became dominant.
the ghosts of all the dead!
Me. I AM NOT HUMAN
Me, With my half human half turtle epicness. (not being selfish here)
Zoidberg.
Octopuses. Those guys are smart.
Ponies and apes
Insects, lots of them
We don't rule the Earth. Ants do. Right now. Already. They're everywhere. There are supercolonies which currently occupy six continents. They out-number us. They will one day overthrow us and retake the surface. And when we're gone they'll still rule the Earth.
Super intelligent gorillas with Irish accents.
Ducks and Bears obviously, at first, the Ducks would come to power and engage a dictatorship against all other animals and nature itself, the Bears, a small insurgent faction rises to struggle with the Ducks, after years of war, both sides are heavily weakened, the Ducks propose a fragile alliance pact with the Bears, after years of growth, the Duck/Bear nation suddenly breaks the pact in hopes of glory and finishing what their predecessors could not, and they engage in an all out brutal war like the world has never seen before, 62 years later, the war finally ends, Earth is now composed of only sand and dust.
Super intelligent corgis, just think, they already control us now with their irresistible cuteness.
