We're supposed to believe humans came to America 11,000 years ago & hunted everything on two continents to extinction in just 500 years? Give me a break. When humans came into Europe 50,000 years ago, they found goats, pigs, cows, horses, and sheep. They couldn't hunt them to extinction in the 45,000 years before they finally began domesticating them.
Humans came into North America 22,000 years ago prior to the beginning of the ice age 20,000ya. All you have to do is look a layer under your Clovis to find them. No doubt the humans were happy to have a few easy meals when the spreading ice sheets pushed the big game to them but it was primarily the change of habitat that did them in.

Precisley.
They had an article recently about a human footprint found in Mexico that was dated to 40,000 years ago. It was preserved in lava.
The footprint was headed towards the Rio Grande.
