@farmerman,
Quite the contrary. Human beings are unique in that we make conscious decisions to linit our own fertility.
I don't believe any other species does that. The human population growth is decreasing significantly and the human population may stabalize or even start to decrease in our lifetimes.
Population is being controlled by humans as part of an international effort including womans rights, family planning support and efforts to address poverty.
I think these unique human efforts are pretty cool
