OK - I’ll concede that early man may have seen food opportunity in animals that were already dead (by predators age, misadventure or disease)....but I still question whether they had the tools for hunting, trapping and killing such massive creatures.

Let's see....would I kill a mammoth or a few deer?

If there was a meat shortage...maybe...but there was not. So they killed and ate a few...big deal...
