With the humans came new species, fire, deforestation and predatory threats to indigenous animals and birds.
So before people none of these things? People were the first predators?

I’m waiting to find out how ‘W’ was responsible for all of this or has that meme finally gotten shopworn from overuse?
As for the impact of Homo, while it has varied in population, I kind of have a problem with significant impact when you have a planet while the populations were between 5 and 7 digits of hunter-gatherers.

Chickens, originally domesticated in East Asia, reached Britain by the second half of the last millennium and now outnumber people by more than three to one globally, says the paper. So, for a species to be successful, it must become a popular human food source.
I have noticed that many species attempt to "taste like chicken." Could it be their desire to become more numerous by becoming a popular food item?

What a crock. I live 20 miles from Manhattan. 40 years ago or so when I was flying out of Caldwell Airport (officially Essex County Airport) I would take non-flyers up for a ride, Sometimes I would head west toward the Delaware Water Gap. On such flights, almost all newbies remarked at their surprise at how undeveloped everything was.
And that's nothing compared to a cross-country flight. Most of the land is still "desolate wilderness."

We are every part of nature as everything else.
All animals use nature for their own benefit. Birds make nests. Foxes dig holes. Beavers make dams. Bees make hives.

There were never pristine environments.
If these peop.e hate themselves so much, they can just kill themselves.
We’d appreciate it.

“Pristine”: So overgrown and choked that humans cannot navigate it without defiling it in some way - like breaking twigs or swinging a machete....

hogwash. Humans are natural. Therefore anything they do is by definition “pristine”
