Did humans cause the mass extinction of megafauna during the Late Pleistocene period?

Importance of archeology research tasks: Introduction It is difficult to say that humans do not affect the environment. For example, climate change is a topic in developed countries as there is evidence of human-caused global warming, which has a theoretical influence on its potential impact on our future. But what impact have humans influenced when first settled in North America thousands of years ago? The cause of extinction of giant animals in the late Pleistocene was the problem that archeologists tried to answer for decades, but the reason is decisive.

One of the main theories of extinction is climate change. The theory of climate change suggests that climate change at the end of Pleistocene emphasizes the extent of extinction of gigantic animals. Some scientists agree that sudden climate change is a catalyst for the extinction of large-scale animals in the late Pleistocene, but many believe that early modern early human hunting activities also play a role, and others People also suggested an interaction. However, the annual average temperature during the current interglacial period over the past 10,000 years is not higher than the previous glacial period, but some of the same huge plants endured similar temperature rise. In the Americas, controversial interpretation of climate change is proposed based on the hypothesis of a new fairy tree which states that the influence of comets will lower the temperature of the earth.

In late Pleistocene and early Holocene, most mammoth populations disappeared with most Pleistocene giant animals including Colombian mammoths. This extinction is part of Quaternary extinction, which began 40,000 years ago and reached its peak from 10,000 to 10, 500 years ago. The main factors that scientists have about hunting and climate change (the cause of shrinking habitat) are whether they can be divided by the main factor that will destroy mammoth, or a combination of both. Regardless of cause, large mammals are less vulnerable to small mammals because of their low population and low reproductive rate. Different mammoth groups did not disappear at the same time within those ranges but gradually disappeared over time. The majority of the population disappeared from 14000 to 10 000 years. The last mainland population existed on the Kyttyk peninsula in Siberia 9, 650 years ago.

Mammoth like fur usually extinct between 10,000 to 40,000 years ago, and most of the giant animals of Pleistocene. However, there are two known exceptions. Mammoths are still on two islands: Russian islands in the Arctic Ocean, Wrangel Island, and the island of Saint Paul on the coast of Alaska. The latter was the last place where mammoth survived in North America (3600 BC), and the Wrangel population survived until about 2000 BC. The fact that huge animals are on the verge of extinction is mainly attributed to climate change and human plunder. As the climate warms, humans have previously been blocked by ice or spread to new areas that are too harsh to maintain life. The population of Sao Paulo and Wrangel survived as long as they survived. They were separated from humans and were not arrested.
