Yeah but they’re all dead, what does that say about their tactics?

I mean, they hunted mammoths to extinction so, pretty fucking effective lol

I mean, we're here, which means someone must have killed a mammoth.

But really they didn't hunt them with rocks on sticks. They chased them toward a cliff with their friends waiting at the bottom to dispatch any that survived the fall. This is why there's no more mammoths.

We didn't just kill a mammoth, we killed all the mammoths.

Not true, a bunch survived until a few thousand years ago up north.

I refer you to my previous statement.

Ah, the Tremors method.

Tge mammoths are all dead too so they were effective.

They weren’t very good at living for eternity? And really, who would want to?
