We look at the Younger Dryas period, the late ice age, as well as some of the enormous animals that lived during that time, and died when it ended.

Lost World of the Pleistocene Monsters

Mammoths, mastodons, sabre-tooth cats, giant sloths, short-faced bears, and dozens of other mega-mammals went extinct

Randall transitions into the first stages of the many-tiered discussions that will follow regarding the period that Plato pegged long ago as the time when the fabled Atlantis was destroyed – what scientists now refer to as the Younger-Dryas Boundary or Pleistocene/Holocene transition, when many sudden shifts to life and the planet are documented. Randall also displays some of the monstrous bestiary that lived through the Pleistocene Ice Age cycles, but all of these mega-mammal or "megafauna" species went extinct, along with many others and the Clovis culture too, about 12,000 years ago.
