The Anti-theist Thread

True - but mammals that are large and have fewer natural enemies - produce fewer offspring. Also - they have to roam farther to search for food because of their appetites. During that journey they travel in large groups and a lot of times they are weak.

Now the extinction of an animal could be related to multiple events. If humans were able to only hunt so many mammoth - but then for some reason there was a hard winter, but man continued to hunt the same number as the year before - even though many of the mammoths were dying off because of starvation - early man could play a big role in the extinction. The mammoths may never have been able to reproduce enough to recover from it.
