      Who are they?! 🙂

      I don”t think this is something that is actually happening, but I’m sure we won’t be so reckless as to introduce scores of unnatural wildlife into a new ecosystem should we ever move?

      Some scientists look at other planets which may be able to support life but it is more to find out if there is life on other planets rather than to see if we could all move there.

      Hypothetically the only animals they may consider are the ones we eat for taking over there and don’t agree with Kevin, I think we would be that reckless because we have already done it on this planet
