Lake Mungo dried up primarily due to climatic changes that occurred over thousands of years, particularly during the last glacial period. As temperatures rose and precipitation patterns shifted, the lake's water levels decreased significantly. Additionally, geological processes, such as sedimentation and evaporation, contributed to the lake's desiccation, transforming it into the dry land we see today in the Willandra Lakes region of Australia.
