Abstract
- The article in Science News discusses new findings regarding the decline of kangaroo species in Australia around 40,000 years ago. Researchers suggest that human hunting and rapid climate changes may have played a role in limiting kangaroos' dietary options. By analyzing the wear on the teeth of ancient kangaroo species, the study challenges previous assumptions about their diets and supports the idea that hunting, rather than dietary restrictions, was a significant factor in their extinction.
