The problem was that the herds were dying out at the time
due to a drastic change in their environment. With a decreasing
population, enviromental changes and such, Man just hastened
their demise by tipping the scales more towards extinction
than adaptation and survival!

I repeat -- MAN DID NOT HAVE TO KILL OFF ALL THE HERDS TO
CONTRIBUTE TO THE EXTINCTIONS! All he had to do was kill off
enough to lower the critical mass for species survival
beyond what it could rebound from with out help. Nature did
the rest!
