People should take this event seriously (Score 1, Insightful)

(This will make sense if read completely.) A simple observation of the white tailed deer may offer an insight into the current events of the natural world. The deer, when their herds become to large, often experience wide spread disease. The question we must ask ourselves: Why do the deer become ill if the population grows to large? There must be some mechanism in nature which responds to the growing population and causes the disease. This mechanism is the lack of food. The theory of evolution suggests that the less novel (less original ways of getting food) and weaker (cannot fight for the food) deer will be the ones who starve and become more vulnerable to disease. If unchecked the disease will eventually become so serious the deer die. Then the population is reduced. I propose that there are multiple mechanisms which regulate the population of all life. I will also propose that if one mechanism is not successful in controlling the population of a given species that another method will then prevail. I will finally state the obvious: 1) humans are an animal species, 2) we are vulnerable to disease, however we can treat disease, 3) because we can treat disease nature now responds with natural destruction. I must make perfectly clear that this is not a Gaia theory, I do not propose that the planet is alive. The supernatural need not explain this behavior. The Earth is merely a self-regulating system, and nothing more.
