READING, WRITING

Read 60 seconds in SAPIENS by Yuval Noah Harari,

The author offers as a 2nd explanation for _______ (what was it again?  the destruction of the Australian megafauna & the Sapiens footprint?)  is that when Sapiens first arrived in Australia, they had already mastered fire-agriculture.

This meant that they could burn large areas of land, turn them into grasslands, and more easily attract animal life to them to kill and eat (versus going out and hunting them through almost impassable thick growth).

This also meant that the animals' diets would change.  Koala bears eat only eucalyptus, and eucalyptus is less susceptible to burning, and so the Koala/eucalyptus part of the chain survived.
