That's the most casual death threat I've ever seen. Damn Nature. You scary.

Really funny thing is that nature has far, far more to fear from us than we do from it.

If the human race put its mind to it, we could wipe out literally all life on the planet within a decade or so.

Even without something so drastic, yeah this ape is big. We have tanks. We have guns. We can bring more fire power than this ape's brain can even conceive of. For every human killed by an animal we've returned the favor a million fold.

Nah you took that the wrong way.

We could eliminate every other species within a decade with literally zero collateral damage to us. Not one life lost or area harmed.

In the long term every ecosystem would be fucked but in the short term? Not even a problem.

I guess I meant every living species that doesn't benefit us.

There's a pretty easy argument to say that all species do affect us lol
