Just look at the grey squirrel in the UK or the animals that were imported into Australia...

At the end of the day it is just nature running its course. Admittedly it probably wouldn't have happened without human intervention, but being self aware doesn't segregate us from nature.

Not a new story, but perhaps getting an airing because 2010 is the International Year of Biodiversity.

The trust also warned the red-necked wallaby is capable of damaging capercaillie birds on Loch Lomond island, while muntjac deer congregating in high numbers are also accused of being a threat to wildlife.

So the reason that they are against the Muntjac deer is because they go around in gangs? :shock:
