Also interesting was the author citation network analysis, which pointed to a strong gender bias (80% male) within the scientific leadership of megafaunal extinction studies - maybe not a surprise to those working in the field for many years but a bit of a wow moment for me.

Great to see this important paper out!! Makes it all the more clear that the problem is NOT that we need to be patient and wait for equity to arrive, that’s just not going to happen. Also clear from the gender bias of the comments that men don’t share our level of concern.
