So far, man and “wild” animals have not learned to co-exist.

Since we are the species with brains to reason things out, it behooves us to find a way to make things work.

The one thing that sets Man apart from “animals” is our ability think logically, and not act on instinct.

You’re entitled to have your own opinion on the subject, and please, don’t ever feel you need to apologize for your stance.

I’d be the last person to ever say, “You’re wrong!”

Coexistence with wild animals that think of you as dinner cannot happen in this world..

Since as you say man is the animal with reason and does not act instinct, I would say you are wrong...Many people have been put in positions that acting on instinct is the only thing that saved their lives or ended it...Fight or flight is an inborn instinct. For normal people the instinct to nurture the young is inborn, as is the instinct to protect one's family from danger..If it were not so the species would have not survived. We have many instincts and also the ability to reason, some people's reasoning is faulty..

Thank you for saying I don't have to apologize for my opinion as I did not apologize for it..never would unless someone had a better argument than I and you do not have such an argument at this point...but I would not have to apologize, I would just agree and change my opinion

But I don't agree with you and everyone has a right to be wrong...I defend your right...

But at this point I think you are wrong :O)
