Humans on their way to catalyze untold suffering due to their inability to comprehend externalities

We've fucked up every ecosystem there is and are looking for ways to fuck places that don't even have them. Humans are the worst.

Wait are foxes an invasive species?

Red foxes are one of the most damaging invasive species in Australia. They've led to the extinction of multiple species. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_foxes_in_Australia

Damn that's crazy, we hear about the feral cats being super bad for the native species but not red foxes, they're pretty rare here in the US, or at least in my area.
