Right. The mentioned mega-fauna? Most went extinct within a few centuries of Homo Sapien sapiens settling in the area. I suppose you could argue that was just a massive coincidence that happened every time modern humans showed up.

Some make it for a long time and can evolve no further.

You are totally clueless about evolution, aren't you? Because this is a really stupid statement. What usually drives entire groups of animals into extinction is when their environment changes faster than they can adapt. Like when lots of volcanoes dump CO2 into the atmosphere in a short period of time and the temperature spikes. Or a comet hits. Or humans move into the area and start hunting. Or change the environments by clear cutting forests, plowing up grasslands or cultivating rice on a large scale.

No higher power really needed.
