The cause doesn't change the result.

Context still matters. The first comment insinuated that it was only natural for them to die out sooner or later.

We accelerated the climate change, but it would have still happened.

That's climate-deniers bullshit. The rapidity of climate change is the catastrophic bit.

For example, Yellowstone supervolcano will erupt

I don't know about the gravity of damage to life on earth of yellowstone erupting. But mass extinctions on a global scale are so rare that this current one is only the sixth one in the whole history of earth. Would yellowstone seriously globally threaten all non-"technological" humanity.

Survival of the fittest is slightly complicated [...]

That bit doesn't really contribute anything to the discussion. You're not really replying to anything but rather infodumping (stuff that I already knew).
