The shape of thorn trees in giraffe range is a well know phenomena.

I should probably write to the sites where I found these and ask permission to use them. I will do so when I can call up the links although that means I will have to publish them first. I wonder why Google is set up like that.
Maybe they think blog piracy is not worth bothering about? I wonder how much an ask for permission first you bastard button would cost to get some unpaid intern to write?
Meanwhile time is running out on my chance to collect the last of yesterday's weather charts (another thing I don't have the copyright for. Sorry about that.) and I haven't begun to copy-edit this thread yet. I just don't want to los the text that I wrote last night and could not be bothered to use just then.
So rather than blame Google you should blame Mageia for giving me a tool to save all my copied text with. The bastards!
Now where was I?
Ah yes actual climate change. Locations can easily become over grazed.
Usually this is self curing as the animals die off and the farmers seek work in MacDonalds in Europe or North America or get murdered by the CIA acting as the altternative tribes of the region.
I was watching a video last night about archaeology and the ice age. Apparently there are places where you can quarry the bones of elephants uncovered in the Arctic. The claim was that these things were caused by ice he went on to claim the geography displayed sea shore deformation of mountains or do I mean sea-shore formation of mountains.

So that link is dead now. Bugger! Must be fake news. Sod it where is the delete button on this thing?
I don't think the author was familiar with sea-shores personally. But that still leave the explanation for such cemeteries. I have heard of such things in Canada (Farley Mowat: People of the deer. "Never let the facts get in the way of the truth") but had not realised that something similar was known in Russia.
That should read: Not much of Arctic Siberia lies on a layer of thousands of mammoths that died and sunk into the ground over hundreds of millennia. These days, every year the melting permafrost pushes the tusks and bones of woolly mammoths out of the ground all over the Arctic.
Since I believe this occurred in the flood, if it occurred at all and if wasn't just some local routine at one time, I can't believe the "over hundreds of millennia" claim.
The thing is that if these creatures were dying of starvation they would die over a season not in a heap. They would scatter over miles to find food. They could spread out for miles if they were dying of thirst.
The same sort of thing would happen if they ere freezing to death plus they needed to eat and drink. If they were killed by a large geo-phenomena like an earthquake or a volcanic eruption, they could be piled up but in quite small areas. And if it was heavy ash fall the animals would spread out away from the centre.
The only thing that could have done it was a flood. A flood would pick them while still alive and put them all in the same place and keep them there until they either escaped or died. What else could possibly manage that?
So how did it happen?
This is probably due to volcanic eruptions. Once the large animals began wrecking forests the subterranean waterways will fill as only grass grows on the land with large herbivores breeding heavily. The deforestration takes place
With deforestation rain replaces mist from cloud forest and the ability of mountains to erupt gets out of hand. The mists transform into the high upper atmosphere ice clouds you call chem trails and winters tend to be very much colder.
