I came to the conclusion that roads are the largest single threat to wildlife.
Maps are actually the greatest threat to wildlife.
Humans think that we own, and have the right to dominate, every square inch of the Earth. This is the basic reason why wildlife, worldwide, are going extinct at an unconscionable and unprecedented rate. The only way that they will be able to survive is if we begin exercising some restraint, and granting them human-free habitat. We don't need more maps, we need to start de-mapping the scanty scraps of viable habitat that remain on the Earth, and pulling all human artifacts out of them, especially roads and trails . From the point of view of wildlife, it will be unequivocally harmful .
