Reply to comment by PicardTangoAlpha in TIL beavers are a keystone species, which means they play an important role in ecosystems by modifying the area in a way that is beneficial to plants and animals by jewkakasaurus

It’s not hard to imagine that a species known for altering the environment would have an impact on the other species in that environment.

Besides, what sort of research would you expect to find? How is the fossil record going to show definitively that one species pushed another to extinction over a long period of time?

These interactions are inevitable in an ecological system.
