  2. Late Pleistocene extinctions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Late_Pleistocene_extinctions

    The extinctions during the Late Pleistocene are differentiated from previous extinctions by its extreme size bias towards large animals (with small animals being largely unaffected), and widespread absence of ecological succession to replace these extinct megafaunal species, [3] and the regime shift of previously established faunal ...

    Pliocene–Pleistocene boundary extinction: 2 Ma: Possible causes include a supernova [7] [8] or the Eltanin impact [9] [10] Middle Miocene disruption: 14.5 Ma Climate change due to change of ocean circulation patterns. Milankovitch cycles may have also contributed [11] Paleogene: Eocene–Oligocene extinction event: 33.9 Ma

  4. Miracinonyx - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miracinonyx

    Miracinonyx (colloquially known as the "American cheetah") is an extinct genus of felids belonging to the subfamily Felinae that was endemic to North America from the Pleistocene epoch (about 2.5 million to 16,000 years ago) and morphologically similar to the modern cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus), although its apparent similar ecological niches have been considered questionable due to anatomical ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xenorhinotherium

    Xenorhinotherium is an extinct genus of macraucheniine macraucheniids, native to northern South America during the Pleistocene and Holocene epoch, closely related to Macrauchenia of Patagonia. The type species is X. bahiense. [1]

  6. Camelops - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camelops

    Camelops became extinct as part of the end-Pleistocene extinction event along with most large mammals across the Americas. The extinctions followed the arrival of humans to the Americas, and evidence has been found indicating that humans butchered Camelops, suggesting that hunting may have been a factor in its extinction.

  7. Late Pleistocene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Late_Pleistocene

    The Late Pleistocene is an unofficial age in the international geologic timescale in chronostratigraphy, also known as the Upper Pleistocene from a stratigraphic perspective. It is intended to be the fourth division of the Pleistocene Epoch within the ongoing Quaternary Period. It is currently defined as the time between c. 129,000 and c ...

  8. Paleo-Indians - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paleo-Indians

    Due to the evidence that Paleoindians hunted now extinct megafauna (large animals), and that following a period of overlap, most large animals across the Americas became extinct as part of the Late Pleistocene megafauna extinctions, it has been argued by many authors that hunting by Paleoindians was an important factor in the extinctions, [90 ...
