Part 7/13:
Green’s adventures in remote wilderness, from fishing isolated lakes to hunting and camping, reveal a philosophical perspective on humanity’s place in the ecosystem. He ponders whether humans should accept that extinction might be part of natural cycles and that humans, like animals, are simply part of a larger evolutionary tapestry.
He admires the resilience of species like pronghorn antelope—animals that have survived since prehistoric times, uniquely adapted by their speed and peripheral vision—symbolizing a kind of ancient perseverance in the face of environmental upheavals.
