those darn humans.....

Bush’s fault?

Sea level 7,500 years ago was 15 feet higher than today’s; that is because it was much warmer at that time than now.

Global Warming killed the mammoths!!!!

Actually, it was much lower and rising at that time. It was approximately 7,500 years ago that the Mediterranean likely overflowed the Bosporous into the Black Sea, raising the level of the Black Sea some 300 feet. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Sea_deluge_theory

Super, now I have to feel guilty about what humans did to wooly mammoths. I’ll add it to the list...

I knew somebody would beat me to it.

Now, wait now. Who killed all the mammoths found in Siberia with fresh food in their stomach, flash-frozen to death? Did humans do that? Dang, if they did, we need that technology, so we can spend less on freezers and refrigerators and ski slopes and stuff like that.

I was thinking the same thing. Now it’s my fault the wooly is gone. Can we put this up there with reperations? Did it say it was humans fault or the woolys fault that the earth warmed up? I wonder if they raised the price of gas back then too?

"would mean humans would only have to kill one mammoth each, every three years"

That's more reasonable than having to draw for a Mammoth tag each season.

Humans may have struck the final blow that killed the woolly-mammoth, but climate change seems to have played a major part in setting up the end-game, according to a new study.

Yep. Trog rubbed 2 sticks together and started a little fire. That campfire heated the planet and killed off the mammoths. All because Trog was cold and and wanted to cook a fish.

It's all Trog's fault!

Mmmmmmmmm...Mammoth

[fleagle]

They could have instituted a Wooly catch and release program.

GGG ping though I recall you sending a similar thread out a few days ago or yesterday).

Researchers led by David Nogues-Bravo of the National Museum of Natural Sciences in Spain used models of the climate, as well as models of woolly-mammoth and human populations

In essence "we have no idea how they died so we just made up some *&@% which will hopefully get us some grant money and a trip to the meeting".

But at least we gave it a decent burial.

Yep.

[adversarial]

humans would only have to kill one mammoth each, every three years, to push the species over the brink. A more pessimistic calculation figures that even if one mammoth per human were killed every 200 years, they would still die off.

Seems like big fudge factor built into their calculation. Almost as if they wanted to blame humans no matter how many mammoths were killed.
