Mammoth Killing Humans Caused Mini-Ice Age

I feel like a movie villain after the good guy has fallen into my trap. This is so absurd (to catastrophists), it feels like an April Fool’s Day prank!
The suggestion is as follows:
- Humans migrated to North America
- They slaughtered millions upon millions of mammoths and other megafauna, to extinction (in Siberia there were 150 million mammoths!)
- These beasties were a major source of methane = global warming
- The result was the Younger Dryas cold event, a mini-Ice Age
Of course the alternative explanation, one that does not involve a slaughter not seen outside of the movies – is that the cold snap killed the mammoths, or perhaps the cause of the cold snap (a pole shift or comet/asteroid) killed the mammoths. But that is too obvious, and breaks the unwritten archaeological rule that nature cannot be catastrophic, only man can…

This is simply not the case …there is plenty of prof that an Asteroid or Comet either did a massive airburst or impacted the massive ice sheets that covered most of North America/Canada around 12,900.
They have found evidence all over North America, and in Ice cores dating to that date.
This also killed off Clovis Man & a vast majority of the other large animals alive at that time.
And another point … up to this time, our climate was on a rollercoaster ride going way back … after this, it became stable and allowed humans to progress
I suppose the the Clovis people also flash froze the mamoth and other mega-mamales with food still in their mouths. Totally ignorant to suggest such a thing, Approx. 13,000 years ago a very large comet broke up over North America. The biggest impact was located in the central Great Lakes region, hence the Doulumstone cap which is too round to be from simple glaciation. The impact caused more than just extinctions in the Northern Hemisphere it also caused tramendous fresh water dispersals and tsunamis in the Atlantic basin. I believe it also caused the destruction of the Atlantis civilization. The Younger Drius would last for 1,600 years, when it ended the result was a dramatically altered New World. Clovis man disappeared, along with many other tribes of ancient man. The key peice of proof lies in the discovery of mini metoroids and uridium found in the Great Lakes region.
