I would think Antonio that they could do absolutely nothing at all!Man is the only species that would be aware of that danger,did the last Dodo run and hide from the sailor who wanted himfor dinner?When I was in India recently
I saw three tigers in the wild,these are all severly endangered,yet they know
it not!If I went back next year they may well have disappeared?

kind regards michael.
