Why does Africa have so many species of megafauna, while they became extinct on other continents?

Quoted By:

Because humans left Africa and disturbed the ecosystems of other continents, creating mass extinctions. Humans in Africa lived in a perfectly balanced ecosystem

They'd be rarer in other places. Antarctica for example has not enough food to support large herds of large animals.

Because humans evolved in Africa. They're basically an invasive species on all other continents, and they consequently act like it. The other continents used to have megafauna like that also, until humans killed them all.
