This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Humams are also an invasive species out of its original ecological niche. They were supposed to stay in Africa with the hyenas, cocodriles and lions keeping them in check.

Once humans learned to throw sharp sticks and not venture too far alone the threat of any predators is greatly diminished. The moment any kind of civilization formed there's no amount of hyenas and Crocs and lions that could keep humans in check. I doubt the civilizations of ancient Nubia lived in fear of predators.

People living in cities were fine, but rural folks in the northern hemisphere were certainly terrified of wolves and bears long after civilization was established in their area.
