APRIL FOOL!!!!
I thought we had all agreed to blame it on the comet?
Comet Theory Collides With Clovis Research, May Explain Disappearance of Ancient People
(And Woolly mammoths)
We should stop this before it's too late.
How did Rosie O’Donnell survive?
He must be in need of grant money.
This should be in breaking news!
I’m surprised we didn’t see this coming, now all those cute little baby mammoths won’t live to see the next ice age :(
Oh.... wait a minute....
It was far more climate change (not in any way driven by man) than human hunting. Hunters always reach a stable state with their prey or the hunter dies out, too.
The real reason was not warmer climate, but the change in vegetation in higher latitudes due to precipitation. The woolly mammoth thrived in open grasslands, which Siberia once was. As the climate at the end of the ice age warmed, it also became wetter. The increased precipitation led to different vegetation, and the grasslands became forests. The mammoth did not thrive in wooded swamps. So they died out.
Man had very very little, if anything, to do with this. More crap from these egomaniacs who think man has the earth’s thermostat in his pocket.
What about the iron meteor fragments recently discovered in mammoth tusks and bones?????
Those were the elders of their tribe; standing, pondering while the meteorites fell...
It was Bush’s fault! He and Karl Rove used the Wayback Machine to do this!
These "experts" have two things in common. One -- they can, with absolute confidence, examine a tiny toe bone and invent a whole social structure for the individual, including what he had for breakfast, his family attitudes, where he got water and food, and how he viewed strangers from another culture - like a liberal from Berkeley would, with input from sister Theresa, complete with touchy-feely psychobabble.
Second, they treat their theories as absolute faith. The zealots of the prmised land had nothing over these guys.
The only thing that remains a mystery, and should fuel generations of pschiatrists and psychologists, is the need for these parasites, usually subsisting on grants and foundation money, to blame man for everything in the history of the cosmos. Without hesitation, doubts or qualifiers of any kind.
Needless to say, man has existed only to somehow screw up nature, and man has no rights whatsoever to assume his role in the big picture. That would require, well --- a giant leap of faith.
He must not of seen “Ice Age 2” the meltdown. The Mammoths died due to Non-Human Caused Global Warming.
I couldn’t agree more.
“When the climate in mammoth territory started to become too warm for the furry beast, it allowed humans—who couldn’t handle the lower, mammoth-friendly temperatures—to move into the area”
No doubt we humans were responsible for this global warming that helped lead the mammoth to extinction by sweating.
“humans would only have had to kill one mammoth each every three years to push the species to extinction.”
The motto of those days: Did you kill your mammoth this triennium?
The human race’s hands are covered with mammoth blood.

Thanks Blam. Seems like this gets suggested every year, slightly rephrased, by somebody new. |

Little did we know all those Wolly Mammoths frozen in Siberia were cause by heat...
