- lostapathy 5y agoHumans are predators too!
- Melatonic 5y agoThe problem is humans usually displace or kill the predators at the top of the food chain (since we are the top) which then allows the stuff below it to grow beyond what it should. So for example if something like a large cat was normally hunting these goats it is very possible humans would have been threatened by the presence of the cats (or been annoyed that the cats were killing domesticated animals) and then hunted those to extinction. Very common throughout human history.
- aurizon 5y agoMankind needs a top predator - who walks among them, predation occurs, and population density declines...
