Is wildlife a natural resource?

Question

Is wildlife a natural resource?

Answer 1

Yes.  A good example are the Inuit and how they use wildlife to survive.

Answer 2

yes it's true anywhere It indirectly affects the concrete column apart from the chemical attack on the concrete. Nimao is spot on that saturated soil has less effective stress. When soil is compacted, the friction between particles gives it strength as they are packed more closely together. As it becomes saturated, more water particles fills the gap hence reducing the friction between soil particles, thus reducing the effective stress of the soil. Thereby the less weight the soil can take from the foundation of your building before failing. How does it affect the columns? Well, your columns are sitting on a footing either a pilecap or pad footing. The friction of soil underneath this footing is going to affect how much load the support can take. If overstressed you generally would have settlement. It is not uncommon for footings to overturn thereby breaking the connection between columns and footings. And when one footing settles, more load is distributed to nearby colum/footing combination which in turn overstresses other footings nearby. Direct effect on column, not really but consequential probably.

Answer 10

If I say yes, then.....

Answer 11

Not unless the wildlife is being used by the human population to produce food, products or energy. For example: Springbok (African Gazelle / Antelope) is hunted for food and so is a natural resource. A rat is not useful to us and is not a natural resource.

The term 'Natural Resource' can be subjective so you are best looking up definitions online and make your own decision.

Definitions:

1) "something found in nature that people could use."

2) "something (as a mineral, forest, or kind of animal) that is found in nature and is valuable to humans."

and the definition i use:

“A resource is any part of the natural physical environment, for example minerals or vegetation that humans use”

Hope that's of some use to you

Answer 12

No. Human Belief In Human Supremacy is the cause of such a term. Human Supremacy can be defined as the belief that minerals,forests, everything,everybody,everybeing is there for Human profit. Point taken Wild Life is not a resource. To explain further if  a person were to think about it what has been said all along is that Humans are superior which seems very racist. At one time it was inconceivable to a whiteman that a blackman was human well if this can change then maybe it could be seen as racist to think humans are superior to everything have the right to dominate Earth.

Answer 13

I think so!

if i say no then....
