So each time a animal gets to the top of hill it feasts on the animals below it. Not a very suprising thing, but clearly it support man hunting to extinction every other animal possible, who knows by doing so you may be protecting future generation of mankind from killer seas and snail darters that may evolve in the the future.

People should know the meaning of non sequitur before posting their inferences.

Hi.

Think and be wise. wink.gif

Hunting is different then warfare.

Animals are hunted for food. If over-hunted, the humans "root out the oak tree".

Exterminations, sanitation and pestasides are examples of warfare against another species.

Humans raising livestock is an example of humanity encouraging population-growth of a certain species for the sake of humanity's own good.

Humanity's deeper damages towards other species has to do with over-consuming and waste. If this gets "too bad" it will start to damage the economics of the biosphere's balance.

Thanks for reading.

Sorry but man at the most s only seven to 10 thousand years old. The dinos were here at the same time as Adam

Perhaps the underlying study addresses this, but it is not clear why the researcher assumed that the either the modern day monkeys or the Taung child were killed by the eagles. Eagles are scavengers and will eat whatever is easy, including carrion. See, e.g., animal diversity web at UMich. The monkeys and Taung child could have been killed by something else (disease, other predators) and later scavenged by the eagles.
