One of the beauties of this Q/A site is you're free to ask all kinds of questions - some you might not want to ask, but feel you have to and are more comfortable asking from a forum like this.
I love animals dearly, but another question has occurred to me after my last one:-
In view of various viruses that have plagued the planet recently and the mass culls that followed, in the interests of the NATURAL BALANCE OF NATURE, has anyone posed the hypothetical question that if we were to systematically destroy every last animal on earth, apart from just leaving insects and microscopic life, what would be the end result?
E.g. certain animals have adapted to the way we live and either learnt to live with us and even help us live, over and above being livestock (some intimately like cats and dogs), or inspite of us. Some occasionally attack us, when too much of their territory is invaded or for other reasons.
What I want to know is - would nature SENSE this and fight back & how ?
