I think that humans are a keystone species, and they are one of, if not the biggest keystone species on the planet. Humans have such a huge impact on the ecosystem around us that if we were removed, the ecosystem and community would experience dramatic changes. Humans have changed the natural environment in many ways in order to fit our needs while not even thinking about what is happening to the environment when we do it. As our planet's population gets bigger, humans begin to take over animal habitats because there is not enough room. As we do that, it is killing certain species who also have impacts on the environment. So without humans on the planet I think that there would be huge change in the ecosystem.
