Answer:

Hi,

The correct answer is option (C) Overhunting led to the extinction of large herbivores species

Step-by-step explanation:

Herbivores are those animal species that eat plants only.Hunters and gatherers depended on their hunting skills to obtain meat as a source of protein/food for their families.Most of the animals that were hunted were herbivores.Overhunting reduced the number of these species because the process was not controlled thus there was no time for the animals to increase in numbers in the natural process

Best of Luck!
