This was no problem for human ancestors, of course, nor for kudu runners?

In savanna, yes (some imbeciles still believe their ancestors ran after antelopes... :-DDD), not in swamp forests.

Crocodiles, lions, hyenas... these are all vegans. If they

Fascinating, or so I pretend.
If crocodiles negate the possibility of human habitation,
there's no such thing as humans.
You don't seem to grasp any of this.
We don't even come from Africa, but from S-Asia: we have no Pliocene African retroviral DNA.

Yes, but one might argue that they migrated into Africa and then, after Toba, spilled back out.
The chromosome fusion likely put the breaks on interbreeding, and this resulted in erectus proper. There could be no more interbreeding influencing our evolution, until groups broke off, pushed inland, adapted to their new environments AND THEN interbreed with the mother erectus population...
This is why so called "Moderns," Neandethals, Denisovans and erectus
(Java man?) were co fertile. They only splintered AFTER the chromosome fusion.

Unnecessary assumption IMO.

Sundaland, the usual location identified as the origins in the "Out of Asia" crowd, was Ground Zero with the Toba eruption, and the northern
hemisphere would have been devastated. The BEST place to weather the
Toba event was equatorial Africa. The equator gets the most energy from
the sun, and if you're near the coast the ocean moderates the climate and offers a more consistent source of food.
Toba was recent though; a little over 70,000 years ago.
Doesn't the neandertal DNA in Eurasian people show
that not all of them died out?

According to you, then, there are no elephants

We're all hybrids. Neanderthals were hybrids, Denisovans were
hybrids and the so called "Moderns" were hybrids.
Cro Magnon was a hybrid. Wolpoff showed them becoming
more & more Neanderthal like, more & more modern...

Yeah, the FBI has been informed about you... can't
take any risks.
So, anyway, you are a blithering idiot, quoting
things you never read, much less understood, and
that's why you can't answer even basis questions.

It's obvious that there's a major difference between a specialized
mammalian molluscivore and a terrestrial omnivore that consumes
molluscs occassionally as part of a much broader diet.
