If you build it, they will come!

I think I can assume that we all live in a house or an apartment of some sort; therefore, we too are sharing in the blame when it comes to habitat destruction. Maybe the habitat that once existed where your house now stands wasn't/isn't the habitat of an endangered species but sometime in the future it may very well be.

The main thing is that people don't realize is we too are subject to cycles just like every other animal on earth. Our population will continue to grow higher and higher until enough disease, disasters, starvation, war , etc... take place to help control our numbers; then our numbers will slowly stabilize. Its all about the carrying capacity.

Sadly, in order for once species to thrive others are always put at risk of total destruction.
