Can you think of any cases in which non-human nature needs human intervention?

I'm trying to figure out if non-human nature depends on people at all?





Thanks!Can you think of any cases in which non-human nature needs human intervention?
Whale and dolphin strandings are a good example. No-one knows for sure why they do this, and maybe it's something that has always happened and our ancestors simply got a cheap and easy feed in days of old. The term ';need'; is very subjective. Most everything in nature has its own checks and balances, with human intervention only used as a feel-good measure and as a level of humanity, sympathy, and concern. It's obvious the planet would be better off without humans altogether, but the flip-side to that argument is that perhaps this was all put here for our benefit in the first place.Can you think of any cases in which non-human nature needs human intervention?
1) Yes I can think of a good example. The cheetah is becoming more and more endangered. The future looks grim, because the ones left are all closely related genetically, so much so that a skin graft from one to another will not be rejected. It's due to a genetic bottleneck a while back, but I think something needs to be done to expand their gene pool - if it can. And they need protection.


2) Every week I volunteer at a wildlife rehab center where wild animals are brought in for medical care and rehabilitation. A lot of them are hit by cars or mangled by cats or dogs. We have an eagle and a few hawks there which have been rehabbed, but are missing an eye or a wing and can't released back into the wild. They were shot by people. So my point is that if people damage animals, they should try to rehab them.
No, the more people intervene, the worse things end up. People were the ones that endangered the animals in the first place. some species of mammal is endangered due to predators, the predators will start to die off because there isn't enough of the mammals. Then the mammals will reproduce, lessening their endangerment. Now that there are more of them, the predators can find food again, growing their population. It's a natural cycle.





If anyone can think of a counterexample, please tell me.
