-Natural disasters such as fires and floods would kill the animals and caused survivors to move far.
-Hunting and gathering had become insecure source of food as man would sometimes not get enough food.
-Hunting as well as gathering would sometimes be hindered by unfavorable weather conditions . snow, rain and therefore man would not go for hunting and get food.
