Koala's are fucking dumb and should be extinct, the fires are proof of this

There are many species throughout the world that aren’t adaptable and face extinction at the slightest change to their environment. Does that make them any less worthy of life? By your logic should we just completely disregard the animals that get killed en masse by humans and their activity? (Seems like a pretty asinine point of view) In fact, many of these fragile ecosystems exist because of the balance maintained by such creatures. A good example of this can be found in the Cassowary, a bird who, like the koala, has a very limited diet and exists in a fragile ecosystem. Due to pigs being introduced to their environment because of agricultural exploits, pigs who eventually became feral have started destroying the soil that yields the plants whose fruit they eat, and hunt their young. What’s worse is that the Cassowary’s exclusive diet is extremely important for the reproductive cycle of the plants they eat. Saying we shouldn’t take responsibility for our actions when they directly effect large ecosystems on such a massive scale is just being a lazy fatalist.
