Every day we hear and read about the entry of the big cats or elephants into our human habitations. With his superior arm power, he easily drives them back into the jungles or at times shoots them to death.The entry of animals into human habitations is intrusion or invasion but the man's occupation of their habitat is termed as growth and development. Because he is the sole owner of this earth. Man eats almost all animals or birds and fish varieties, whereas he is threatened by a very few animals like tigers and lions. Even then he is hungry to eat all and endlessly he catches fish with nets and protects himself from the tiny mosquitoes with a similar net.
As the owner of this earth, he cares for his race alone. Unless man recognizes the rights of animals over this earth, there will be conflicts for a few more centuries. No doubt, more and more animals would fall into the category of endangered and still would fall into more extinct. The death of elephants on the rail tracks or poisoning them for tusks will be there as long as they survive.
Man will be the lone ruler of this earth in the near future.
