So you think human should be playing God?

[_THE_PLAGUE]

It is not playing God to hunt to get the resources we need, like, say, hunting buffalo for their meat and fur. That is just survival. We need the whale oil, so hunting them is no more playing God than is hunting buffalo. I do not see a problem here.

It's a lot easier to herd and harvest buffalo than to hunt them down.

Also lets one see them for what they really are: just a big shaggy cow.

Buffalo, ironically another species we nearly hunted to extinction.
