Animals - mostly sheep and goats - have been used for millennia to manage vegetation. The moment it was considered an outdated practice, some fifty years back, better resolved by use of machinery, we started having wild fires, due to having unmanaged highly combustible vegetation, that otherwise was consumed by the animals.
Let’s avoid black or white purism. Animals have played a fundamental role in our civilization. Let’s eliminate the excessive practices and strive for well balanced practices.
Yeah and animals ag has caused many of those areas to turn into deserts. You’re right we’ve been doing it tens of thousands if years, and look at where we are now.
I’m not aguing that we kill all wild animals. Bison and deer are fine (sheep and goats are chicken and cows are not). I’m arguing that we need to stop all human-bred animals that are unnatural species and causing immense damage to the planet.
Systems are much more sustainable without animals. Its not complex science.
If we want more people to be able to live sustainably off the land, then we should ban animal ag.
Fertilization is easily achieved with growing green manure. Organic materials composted. All without the ecological devastation caused by animal ag

What?
Humans bred lots of species into existence. We inbred to optimize economic output, and many of them suffer greatly because of it
Can you expand on that, please? Because you are making less and less sense.
