Abstract
The causes of these extirpations are not known, but the timing does not correspond well with known climatic changes, suggesting that subsistence, and perhaps commercial, hunting may have played a role. These examples underscore the need to recognize that patterns of resource use are highly variable - different cultures have had varying levels of effects on economically important species, and these effects have varied temporally, spatially, and taxonomically.
