The further retreat of the ice led to the flooding by the Atlantic of the NE United States and SE Canada, which had been depressed below sea level by the weight of the ice. An extension of the conservation practice of rewilding, which involves reintroducing species to areas where they became extinct in recent history (hundreds of years ago or less). The nature of a region's climate is dynamic, and during the lake's 75,000-year history, there were a series of major lake stands or lake levels known collectively as Lake Lahontan. ice-free. To determine whether methanogenesis in lake sediments is currently fueled by Pleistocene-aged organic matter, we measured stable and radiocarbon isotopes of CH 4 emitted by ebullition from two representative thaw lakes near Cherskii, Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), Russia (69°N, 161°E).

As their disappearance seemingly coincided with the arrival of people in the Americas, their extinction is often attributed to human overkill, notwithstanding a dearth of archaeological evidence of human predation.
