“…For example, Meijer et al (2023) show that red junglefowl on Flores (Indonesia) reached the island, and potentially the whole of Wallacea, through human-mediated dispersal. Similarly, Cruz et al (2023) show that remains of military macaws found in Cueva de Avendaños, Chihuahua, do not represent a range expansion of the species, but rather signals long-distance trade and subsequent animal husbandry. Thus, caution is warranted when assuming a species is native to a region because of the presence of the species' bones in the archaeological record.…”
