If a species doesn't coexist in balance, in fact upsets nature itself will it fail to exist?
Answer:
PERMACULTURE ANSWER
Nature has Laws one of these is the
Law of Harmony or Equilibrium,
in Nature everybody is welcome ,but nothing is permitted to live in excess.
if it happens it is considered a plague
and nature responds with diseases or predators
There has to be an equilibrium to have harmony,
then life is healthy and peace full
Ancient civilizations knew this ,and so do primative tribes in the Amazon
They carefully limit their numbers in various manners ,the Olmecs women ate Yams to control their birth rate ,
The Aztec sacrified the excess children to the gods
Some tribes in the Amazon & Africa have sexual rites that are only a few times a year .
The environment of any specie can only supply so much food for that specie.
Foxes have more cubs when there is an excess of rabbits and when there is little they only have a couple.
Wild dogs ,Lions tigers ,bears ,hyenas ,everything
abides by this Law, including beavers .

Looking from space we must seem like a plague that is spreading over the planet .
And something has gotta give
Population growth now ,is directly relevant to our overall health and the health of the Environment
and maybe the survival of our specie
We are a specie gone out of control ,
And there are two moments during a species existance when the danger of exstinction is the greatest ,when there are to little ,or when there are too many.
We are destroying animal habitats all over the planet .like no othere specie has ever been permitted to continue without Nature intervening.http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;...
we have by far exeded our alloted space or what can be considered fair .
Or do People have the right to be the only form of life that can ocupy the planet in the end .?
We would die out as a specie long before that happened ,because whether you like it or not
animals are part and parcel of Eco systems .which we need to survive.
For example we need bees to polinate ,and there are millions of examples ,why we need Fauna in conjunction with flora .
So that is Why Environmentalists moan about people expanding into Nature with out restraint .
Superimposing concrete and tar or desserts on top where used to be breathgiving ,carbon absorbing ,humidifying and temperature regulating forrests :

thats a good question. i would be curious if you have a specific species in mind.
as far as our species: we do seem to upset the balance considering all the damage we do to the earth itself. in too numerous of ways to discuss in this short forum.
No. What will happen is that the ecosystem will eventually settle out to an equalibrium point that includes the new species, but at a more sustainable level. There are tons of exapmles of species that have been imported from other regions, finding a niche in new ecosystems. Nature has a very well developed system of checks and balances. Man just thinks they do.
