Worldwide late-Quaternary population declines in extant megafauna are due to Homo sapiens rather than climate

J. Bergman, R. O. Pedersen, E. J. Lundgren, R. T. Lemoine, S. Monsarrat, M. H. Schierup, J.-C. Svenning

The paper analyzes genome data to show that Homo sapiens, not climate, caused population declines in megafauna over the last 100,000 years.

Extinctions have strongly reduced the mammalian consumption of primary productivity

R. O. Pedersen, S. Faurby, J.-C. Svenning

The paper estimates that mammalian herbivory consumes 7.3% of global plant productivity in natural areas, but this would be 13% without human-driven extinctions, indicating a >50% reduction.
