"The new report also suggests that humans could not have been involved in the local extinction of mastodons in the north 75,000 years ago as they had not yet crossed the Bering Isthmus from Asia." Only until this date for human arrival is corrected.

:’) This story appears to be some head-scratching about why the mastodon spread into the Americas from Asia but didn’t linger in Beringia, despite not being hunted, or rather ‘over-hunted”.

No doubt humans were in North America way, way, WAY before Clovis!
But to be honest with you, I’m starting to think we didn’t come from over the Bering strait.
We came up across the Isthmus of Panama!
IOW, humans in SA predate humans in NA.
