«The Final Appeal to Mankind» by Nicolai Levashov

            had inhibited the development of the gymnosperms, but with the death of these giants,
            gymnosperms obtained the freedom to develop.

            These plants were significantly smaller than their predecessors. The animals, which

            replaced the reign of giants were rather modest in size as well. Yet, from the standpoint
            of evolution they were better developed animals. The descendants of dinosaurs and
            amphibians  became  inhabitants  of  the  new  world,  as  the  survivors  of  the  former
            dominant species.

            The emerging angiosperms (enclosed-seed organisms) which had a BEF of up to ten
            percent, had emerged by then, but did not supplant the gymnosperms, as the latter had

            done earlier with ivies, horse-tails and tree-ferns. They simply adapted to different
            climate belts of the planet. Also, the gymnosperms proved to be better adapted to severe
            climatic conditions and, therefore, inhabited the cooler portions of the planet.

            In the course of formation of the Earth’s flora, its fauna developed abundantly as well.
            The latter type of ecological system has lasted up to the present day.


            Nature has not yet been able to create a vegetable organism with a BEF exceeding ten
            percent. In the early stages of the development of our ecosystem the appearance of new
            types of plants led to an energetic transformation of the animal world, but with the
            emergence  of  the  angiosperms  this  process  came  to  an  end.  In  the  beginning,
            unoccupied ecological niches were filled with new species that appeared in the course
            of evolution, but after all the vacant niches were taken, a new species could survive
            only by displacing another from its established base. This resulted in a qualitative

            evolution  of  animals  on  the  planet.  This  evolution  then  moved  to  still  another
            qualitative level, the normal development of which led inevitably to the emergence
            of intelligence.

            This is precisely what occurred and still occurs on many planets of the cosmos. An
            intelligent species, Homo Sapiens, also appeared on our planet Earth. But HOMO

            SAPIENS CAME FROM OUTSIDE our planet and populated an ecological niche
            that was previously occupied by Neanderthals, who appeared in the natural course of
            the evolution of life on our planet. By virtue of the fact that Neanderthals were more
            numerous, better adapted to earth conditions and much stronger, Homo Sapiens, in his
            initial  stages  of  development,  was  totally  unable  to  evict  them  by  himself.
            Extraterrestial agents did this for him and artificially transplanted man into a biological

            niche on Earth. In a later volume we will discuss how this happened and the agents
            responsible for it.

            At this point I should like to emphasize just one specific attribute of living organisms,
            which they must have in the course of their evolution in order to develop intelligence,
            namely,  they  must  be  omnivorous.  The  reason  is  simple.  Any  organism,  without

            harming itself, can break down a certain amount of externally ingested poison. The
            critical dosage is idiosyncratic for each individual of the species. If exceeded it will
