We live in precarious times

Actually we live in very privileged times.

The early humans in North America had to survive from very cold climate as the last ice age was just winding down and they didn't have nice jackets and winter clothing from North Face or Columbia brands.

They didn't have sleeping bags, nice beds, air conditioned homes and apartments like we do now. They were literally sleeping under rather flimsy tents (tepee), rock dens and igloos.

They were competing on daily basis for food against deadly wild predators like saber-toothed cats, wolves, massive grizzly bear, polar bears, mountain lions and more. While hunting for food, you had just as good chance of becoming food of those predators.

They didn't have refrigerators and deep freezers like we do now which meant they had no way to safely store food for extended period.

Similarly, they always had the risk of getting their population wiped out by outbreak of infectious viral/bacterial diseases.
