Megafauna extinction refers to the widespread disappearance of large animals, typically defined as those weighing over 44 kilograms (about 100 pounds), during the late Pleistocene and early Holocene epochs. This event is often linked to a combination of climate change and human activities, such as overhunting and habitat alteration, leading to significant ecological shifts.
