The wild animals still left, no. But numerous, fattier species are now
extinct, some of which were hunted to extinction. And I wonder - is Cordain
referring to meat only or meat and organs? Hunter-gatherers eat organs,
too, something all but taboo today. Sorry, but I can't imagine
hunter-gatherers dining only on lean cuts of meat on a stick. They ate it
all, flesh, organs, marrow - if it was edible, they ate it.
