I think it will be the lions.

^^^retard isn’t serious is he?


I’d guess isopods, cephalopods, jellyfish and bacteria... would depend on what caused humans to go extinct.

Probably small feral dogs like foxes and birds.

When humans die off, bug and small rodent populations will explode. Anything that eats bugs and rodents will thrive.

Probably little shrews

The nigely bear

Crocodiles, they outlived ALL mass extinction events...

Razorback hogs

I seem to remember some Discovery Channel special a while back that hypothesized that big cats were most equipped to take over human spaces like cities and chit and therefore were the most likely inheritors to animal kingdom supremacy.

The problem is that that assumes that humans will die offer like any other species, when it seems to me more probably that we'll nuke the planet into uninhabitability which would mean that big cats would go down with us.

Cockroaches

Yep

If we all just die there would be a huge rat infestation that eats our corpses

Then the rats will die off after a couple years or when there are no more corpses to eat

rats.

The ship or wharf rat has contributed to the extinction of many species of wildlife, including birds, small mammals, reptiles, invertebrates, and plants, especially on islands. True rats are omnivorous, capable of eating a wide range of plant and animal foods, and have a very high birth rate. When introduced to a new area, they quickly reproduce to take advantage of the new food supply. In particular, they prey on the eggs and young of forest birds, which on isolated islands often have no other predators and thus have no fear of predators.[49] Some experts believe that rats are to blame for between forty percent and sixty percent of all seabird and reptile extinctions, with ninety percent of those occurring on islands. Thus man has indirectly caused the extinction of many species by accidentally introducing rats to new areas.[50]
