I gather it never occurred to these “academics” to investigate the possibility that the event(s) that caused the megafauna extinctions ~13,000 years ago may have also contributed to the change in “landscape”? And they get paid to produce this, er, crap???

Thirty years from now, when you're sitting around your fireside with your grandson on your knee and he asks you, "What did you do in the great War in Afghanistan," you won't have to say, "Well... I shoveled dung in Indiana."

Still, it's a job somebody has to do . . . .
