> Humans are nature.

Yeah but they didn’t say we weren’t. They said we are more dangerous to wildlife than nuclear accidents.

To be fair, a pride of lions is also more dangerous to wildlife than a nuclear accident.

Lions, like humans, have intent and will happily track down and kill the last deer.

A nuclear accident on the other hand will only kill at random and will “let go” of many animals it could kill but didn’t happen to incidentally radiate as it disapated.
