    No it isn’t. This is the noble excuse hunters came up with to justify murder.

    Nature has this funny way of balancing itself out. Humans are unique in that we somehow view ourselves as above that rule. But as you’ll see in the coming years we’re at the mercy of that equilibrium.

      Right, all those noble ecologists who spent decades studying this just decided to fake their results cause they get so horny over killing.

      Nature balances out over a couple thousand years. What you are asking for is to speed up the current extinction event.

              Probably longer than yours. Why, are you upset that someone who actually studies this for a living disagrees with you?

              Youre gonna find that in science a lot.

                I’m not upset that you disagree with me, but the idea of human intervention in natural systems affected by unnatural actions from the same human intervention doesn’t make any sense. We hunted buffalo to extinction for capitalism. Did we control the population enough for you?

                I’m glad you’re comfortable being disagreed with though. It probably happens a lot.

                  You think the intentional extinction of a species for the purpose of ethnic cleansing is the same as metered population hunting?

                  And youre surprised the science disagrees with you?
