	Climate Change Caused Extinction of Australia's Giant Animals
		The giant marsupials that carried their young in pouches are related to the kangaroos and wombats of today.

		Fossils of Diprotodon and other animals are plentiful in the dry inland lakes of South Australia, and may be evidence that the last of the Diprotodons retreated into the lakes as they dried up.

		Further fossils and research (see "Giant Crocodyliform..." in the bibliography) have fleshed out the image of a creature with all the hallmarks of a 1950s Hollywood monster: Teeth.
		Sereno observed that crocodiles have evolved toward the golden mean -- the midgets and the giants have largely gone extinct, leaving only the mid-size units.

	The Cryptid Zoo: Gigantic Animals
		Giant animals are quite common in science fiction, including King Kong, Godzilla, many different kinds of gigantic insects and plenty of truly huge sea monsters.
		Among the reptiles, there were many giants that survived long enough that early humans surely saw such creatures, including giant turtles the size of cars and giant lizards truly deserving of the label "dragon." The largest flying birds we know of are the presumably extinct teratorns, with 25-foot wingspans.
		Giant earwigs, more than twice the size of ordinary earwigs, were discovered on the island of St. Helena in the eighteenth century, but then seemingly went extinct.

	The Straight Dope Mailbag: The Straight Dope Mailbag: Does the theory of evolution fly in the face of the facts?
		I find it more than interesting that the animals that died off and never returned were the biggest strongest and most dangerous to man. If you believe evolution it would point in the opposite direction.
		Those giant mammals you mentioned were around for quite some time and survived into the dawn of man. Some even think humans helped usher them into extinction.
		If the environment is filled with a mix of giant animals and smaller animals, and there is a food shortage, the smaller ones, who need less fuel to keep them going, are going to have a better chance of winning out.

		The cave acted like a huge natural pitfall trap: animals that fell in were unable to escape through the high entrance and died, their skeletons lying nearly undisturbed for millennia.

		The Naracoorte giants perished under climatic conditions similar to those under which they previously thrived, the researchers concluded, strongly implicating humans in their extinction.

	Small species back-up giant marsupial climate change extinction claim
		By systematically analysing a 10 metre deep section of creek bed, the team uncovered 44 species, ranging from land snails, frogs, lizards and small mammals to giant wombats and kangaroos including many species previously unknown to have occurred in the Darling Downs fossil record.
		The results suggest that the extinction of Darling Downs megafauna was caused by a massive shift in climate rather than by the arrival of humans who over hunted animals or destroyed habitats by burning the landscape.
		Current theories suggest that between 50,000 and 20,000 years ago, increasing aridity in Australia led to cooler and drier conditions that decreased wooded habitats and expanded deserts and grasslands, but researchers are still not clear what impact it had on fauna.
