The abrupt extinction of the megafauna during the Pleistocene in North America dwindled the large animal population to about 70 percent (Martin). The cause of this massive extinction is unclear due to lack of evidence during this time‚ but there are many subjective beliefs that involve both ecological and environmental forces.
