AI synopsis
The discussions highlight specific points from the research, such as users referencing the correlation between human expansion and megafaunal extinction rates. Phrases like 'mass extinctions starting tens of thousands of years ago' and statements asserting 'it is well-supported science' reflect a tone of validation and urgency, contributing to the overall positive sentiment about the article's findings.
The majority of posts express strong support for the conclusions that human activity was the primary driver of megafauna extinctions, rather than climate change.
Users demonstrate a high level of curiosity about the research, reflecting ongoing relevance in ecological and historical discussions.
While many posts discuss the findings, fewer delve deeply into specific methodologies, indicating moderate engagement with the details.
There is a consensus that the findings could have a significant impact on how we understand historical extinction events and their implications for current biodiversity issues.

@jtrek100 There are so many variables at work. It is like the question, “Which came first, chicken or egg?” Climate change was invariably to blame, but was the extinction of the other species solely caused by climate change and did that lead to Neanderthal demise? https://t.co/Lygv9lfpdk
@DekNojkfMadRijk Nope... la extinción de la mega fauna que sobrevivió millones de años a múltiples ciclos de calentamiento y eras de hielo se fue extinguiendo a medida la especie Homo sapiens fue extendiéndose fuera de África oriental en un lapso corto de ~100 mil años https://t.co/DaqZ3ZBOKx https://t.co/s1BZqnd4rG

@StephenCorrySvl But what you're saying is not true. Humans did drive the megafauna extinct is most places outside Africa. And "lies"? Really? I support Survival Int and teach your material, but it's much harder to when you deny scientific evidence and call it lies https://t.co/y56qfku8ut
@ptrhydn @GeorgeMonbiot @dpcarrington Population is one issue. Not the defining one. During the pleistocene many megafauna were driven to extinction by humans, and with a tiny % of our current population. We do damage either way. https://t.co/2hQQNsn4PE
@expressiveegg @GeorgeMonbiot @dpcarrington 1. Omnivorousness means that we *can* survive on various mixtures of foot types, not that we *should*. 2. Pre-civ? Are you aware of what our hunting-gathering ancestors did to the places they lived? https://t.co/2hQQNsn4PE

@GriffithsPedro @1GarethWynJones @BBCOne @lizbonnin (3) Even then, human desire for meat caused problems.
