JFTR even artificial insemination might be useful and the foxes perhaps
kill more as they need to prevent the world against too much population
of rodents. That small animals like rats might tend to overpopulation
might be good too, they perhaps will preserve live, if an asteroid would
kill all other animals. IOW we don't know what's needed and whats
unneeded, we only have theories about evolution, about what is good and
what is bad and we might not be stupid, but our points of view might be
wrong, because we perhaps have a task that makes us unable to understand
the wohle thing. We should be careful with trusting our assumptions.
