The harder they fall.

Meanwhile, the smaller they are the longer you’re stuck with them. Like ants.

For having such a firm belief in evolution they certainly seem to want to want to end it.

Progressives wanting to stop evolutionary progress.

"It's known as the Younger Dryas period of time that lasted from 12,900 to 11,600 years ago."

I know that and you know that; how come Mr. "Researcher" doesn't know that? I think there's more money for blaming humans for every disaster.

Anything over 80 lbs is a “large herbivores”, then proceeds to talk about mammoths. Seems the article is spinning.

I met a Ute young man a few years ago and we talked about the Clovis people. He insisted that the Utes basically ARE the Clovis people. They didn’t die out or were overtaken by other tribes. They just changed a bit with the circumstances and kept on living.

Yeah, because if its not on record, it doesn’t count. Pretty sure this past Monday was NOT the hottest day EVER. Recorded, maybe EVER? Nope.

Interesting that you didn’t mention passenger pigeons, Carolina parakeets, and Ivory billed woodpeckers.

"He insisted that the Utes basically ARE the Clovis people."

As far as I know (which isn't really much about Clovis), their projectile points are really all we have left to identify them. Did your friend have any insight into why they might have changed that aspect of their culture?

I am not sure what most of those are, but my point is that it is impossible to exterminate a species unless that species is already under threat. A well-adapted species will laugh off any attempt to eradicate it.
