   Weather warning: Bad weather killed giant ancestors of common animals   
   that roamed Europe   
      
   Ice Age megafaunal, such as giant oxen called aurochs and mammoths, which   
   roamed across Eurasia and the Americas became extinct after a major increases   
   in environmental moisture, according to the study.   
      
   The persistent moisture caused by melting permafrost and glaciers turned   
   widespread glacial-age grasslands into peatlands and bogs, annihilating   
   populations of large herbivore grazers.   
      
   Research led by the Australian Centre for Ancient DNA at the University of   
   Adelaide, published today in Nature Ecology and Evolution, has revealed that   
   ancient bones show evidence of environmental upheavals.
