Species disappear all the time.

The issue, in so much as there is one, is the speed at which that change is happening.

Note I specifically said "at our hands" to suggest exactly this. Nature gonna nature, agreed. What we're doing is different.
Aren’t we nature too? Isn’t every species of living thing trying to thrive as much as possible in a ceaseless competition for space and resources?

Are we the shepards of the world or just another organic life?

No. We were nature, but we're progressing faster than natural processes can adapt.
