Cricketman Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 if you mean by adapt that we rape and pillage the environments around us changing them forever so as to suit our needs, then youd be correct... but, on our own, without houses or airconditioners or heaters or electricity, we are a pretty crap species... like the conversation i had with living art the other day, if ferrets or weasels were abit bigger, the human race would have died out ages ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 Humans are the only animal that can prety much almost adapt to ANY environment, and survive. i guess thats a plus Most animals like that are called invasive pests.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henward Posted January 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 true, that is a valid statement, but the end of the day, i guess its what makes us the top of the food chain. if cockroaches were our size, we would be screwed!

To make it more realistic, put a couple fans blowing around in the room. Gee Ira, I never thought of it that way before. Now that you say that, it makes sense that he'd have a hard time finding it...duh :-? Thanks, Caper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
