The recent high tides have infiltrated the system of holes, eroded the defence and caused some considerable erosion on the river bank. That wasn't very intelligent, was it? |
The big difference is that we are well aware of the damage we are doing to our enviroment and ultimately our own survival whereas as animals are not, the other major difference is that we are destroying everything on a global scale including in the process the habitat of many other species, as we have colonised the world, damage caused by other species is normally localised and minimal by comparison.
