Jameson's Red Rock Hare - Human Interaction and Impact

Human Interaction and Impact

Jameson's red rock hare is not on any endangered or threatened list. The habitat it uses, as with many other animals' habitats, is endangered because of human encroachment. The continent of Africa, even the region this species is found, is often war-torn and this may affect Jameson's red rock hare, its habitat, or both. Currently, though, the population of Jameson's red rock hare appears to be stable.

Famous quotes containing the words human, interaction and/or impact:

    “... dependence upon material possessions inevitably results in the destruction of human character.”
    —Agnes E. Meyer (1887–1970)

    “The act of putting into your mouth what the earth has grown is perhaps your most direct interaction with the earth.”
    —Frances Moore Lappé (b. 1944)

    “Television does not dominate or insist, as movies do. It is not sensational, but taken for granted. Insistence would destroy it, for its message is so dire that it relies on being the background drone that counters silence. For most of us, it is something turned on and off as we would the light. It is a service, not a luxury or a thing of choice.”
    —David Thomson, U.S. film historian. America in the Dark: The Impact of Hollywood Films on American Culture, ch. 8, William Morrow (1977)
