I forgot to mention that if you liked Heinlein's "Tunnel In The Sky",
you will probably like this series.

What, no dogs to pull the traverses? 

But I suppose which Pleistocene ice age was being used. According to
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pleistocene#Major_events] (scroll
down!), there are four choices (in N America):
Nebraskan
Kansan
Illinoian
Wisconsian

If it an early-enough period, I suppose there might be no dogs.

BTW, Earth 4428, Darwin's World, does not have any native humans.  Only
animals, bugs, reptiles, etc.  It was chosen for settling rebuilt humans
for this reason.

So, the theory here is that no dogs survived the Pleistocene? Or is it
that they were domesticated later on?

Please keep in mind that /you/ are the one who said it was at the end
of (one of the) Pleistocene ice ages. So no moving the goalposts to
the far future.

In our timeline, dogs were domesticated *during* the Pleistocene.

You haven't met my mom's dog.  It could benefit greatly from domestication.

There were no humans on Earth 4428 until the very end of the
Pleistocene.  Almost all of the other thousands of Earth planets in
other universes had humans on them.

Ah. I mistook "4428" for a year.

I wasn't aware this was in the Marvel Universe.
