A True Garden of Eden

There once was a recent true garden of eden not too long ago. It wasn't inhabited with people. It was inhabited by the Kakapo. They had no natural enemies in their garden of eden, no predators to stalk these docile flightless birds always land dwelling so they never evolved to sense and flee from any danger because danger never existed in the Kakapo garden. Danger was a stranger. These docile living creatures maybe actually experienced a life of true blissful serenity. Their heaven on earth, so to speak. The humans arrived and settled bringing pets/predators with them as well as much of the many variety of predatory vermin and so now the Kakapo has lost it's true garden of eden. Why? Why else? Because of humans. They're an endangered specie also and that's truly an unforgivable sin. We suposedly had once our true garden of eden and I gues our attitude now is, "If we can't have ours back, well then neither wil anything." Inspired by Amy Green's blog
