Environment be damned or don’t be damned. Because you like them or because you don’t like your neighbors … what animals would you like to see locally that are not there ?

None. We’re still dealing with many other instances of people thinking it’s a good idea…

OP specified that it’s hypothetical and you can choose to ignore the consequences if you choose.

I used to think “bloody poms with their rabbits and foxes”, but now I’m mostly angry at cats, bloody cats…

Keep your cats inside people, billions of wild animals are killed by cats every year in Australia, billions!

Or how about it would be really annoying to annoying people. Like if zombies were pretty rare but also didn’t bite you or kill you but followed you around in a constant light slap fight and stole from you like a sock from each pair or put holes in your donut holes or threw rocks at your house in the middle of the night but was totally invisible to police.

I would not want it murdering the slightly less intelligent than me without knowing that sliding frame of reference of what “less intelligent” could mean would eventually subsume me as a matter of fact.

Nah, I don’t want them annoyed. I want them gone. It wouldn’t be a sliding frame of reference either. It would just be “animal that is smarter than people who are so stupid they become a problem for everyone else around them”

Can confirm … and once they know what a human is, that it is tasty, that it is weak, that it is vulnerable without weapons … it will chase after people like a dog chasing squirrels.

It wouldn’t really have to chase the babies.

If they could cut down on the deer population, too, that would be nice.
