Is it our responsibility to protect endangered species or should we let nature take its course?

its not nature when we harvest something to extinction

Survival of the fittest is in a natural setting and nature running its coarse ,,but where in the world either on land or sea you do not see the damage man has caused ?
Eko systems and environment ,natural habitats

I know when a herd or pack is over populated there is less food ,more chance for disease and thats why hunting in the USA is managed ,and certain species are protected

We now see human impact has screwed a lot of eko systems up

Like Boa constrictor ,Anaconda's in the glades with no predator to keep them in check ,what a huge problem that is for Florida ,
But we stepped in to protect the Alligator and they were not as endangered as we assumed ,,now they have to open special hunts for them too in order to keep them our of our back yards or endangering humans ,or pets .
But in many places ,we took their homes ,and now we want to know if we have any part in making sure they don't become extinct ,

I think we asked the question a little to late
there are many species my grandkids will never see except for in books ,that I used to see as pests there were so many of them ,,but not any more

By nature, you mean other humans slaughtering them and stealing their environments? Because implying its the natural order is only acceptable if you're a complete moral vaccuum

We are the ones who are endangering so much life on this planet. It seems to be ignorant is the route to take.
Did nature bring the creature to near extinction or did the people of the world?
Nature didn’t endanger those species, humans did. It’s the least we could do now.

Would those species take on the responsibility to save humans if they were to become endangered?

What specie couldn't exist without humans on this planet?

The damage of man is not observed to be considered natural

we should do whatever we want, the outcome is the same

If species are endangered because of [b]us[/b], we’re the problem—not nature. So we [b]should[/b] try to be part of the solution.
