What a shameful way we have treated our country. Introduction of foreign species, deforestation, pollutants and other harmful processes have all played a major role in what has shaped this country to what it is today. Foreign species have no direct relation to Australia s unique biodiversity. I think in many cases we fail to fully understand the meaning of the word extinct . Fragmentation of native scrub, salinization, desertification due to overgrazing and many other destructive processes put a huge strain on both Flora and Fauna.
Habitat destruction has and still is continuing on a large scale.
These are some of the things we must take a serious look at. There is no easy solution to Environmental impact in some cases, but there is a lot that can be done to either improve or rectify the situation. My answer would be yes, Its as obvious as the nose on your face, open your eyes and look around, nature cannot always compensate for the greed of man. Pictured above The outright slaughter of the Tasmanian tiger is one of this countries greatest crimes. Back in 1888 the Tasmanian Government placed a 1 Bounty on its head.
