Re: Shark attack - Brisbane waters
but are we really number one
if all is considered equal you should be able to put a human into any situation and have the human come out on top..... so a shark swimming in the water (with just it's normaly sharky shape and body) should be able to be over-powered and killed by a human in the water (with just it's normal human shape and body), but of course we know this won't be the case and the shark will win. Same goes for the lion in the serengeti! (hopscotch aside!!) just because we've figured out how to make and use a gun, or a shark net, or a spear, doesn't mean that we're number one. it means that if we tip the scales in our favour we will win. I (IMO) don't think we are the number one predator just because we've mastered the above mentioned impliments! but now we're getting into Human Cognitive Evoltuion and that's a bit deep me thinks!!! as for the list................... can we add chavs?? |
