Will a nickel mine threaten animal life around it?

Absolutely yes. Among the threats are dumping of acid waste from the extraction process, leaching of mine "tailings" (see ref. 1), and possible emission of the highly toxic compound nickel carbonyl (see ref. 2) an intermediary in the process of purifying nickel.

i would say b)\n\nbecause new wolves might bring new problems like different diseases or prey on other animals, which would screw the ecosystem over even more! at least with letting the moose reach carrying capacity, you know that nothing new is being introduced into the area, and when the moose population crashes, the plants and things that the moose effect will have some time to recover before the next period of moose overpopulation.

Don't know. But get animal control to capture it. Don't wait until one of your animals is hurt or a child.

Any animal will bite if scared or angry.  They don't do it vindictively, they are just protecting themselves like they would in the wild.

Be careful.\n\nThat environment can be dangerous.

Not only would their teeth overgrow but they would be homeless. Beavers use the wood to build dams that they live in. It probably helps them catch food in an indirect way as well since it floods the area upsteam and perhaps creates a larger habitat for fish.

nothing.  If it's non-living,.......never mind.  People are morons.  The human race is doomed.

Certain species may be protected so yes...it would be illegal to chase them though why you would want to do so, I can only wonder.

no it hasnt harmed anyone, the hysteria is about creulty to animals, and trying to affect nature. i certainly have never seen any evidence of it being harmful

It makes great photographs.\nTry Quackwatch for a real medical answer, somewhat biased away from alternative methods.\nAll metals are potentially dangerous to the body.\nAlso the NIH website has good references to any research done on any facet of health care.

Congers are eels which can get large and can be dangerous.  I don't know if that is what you are looking for?

as long as there are living beings on the plant there will be aggression and war.  War will not end, it will possibly get worse due to potential conditions in nature that will kill hundreds of millions of people in the future --> what would happen if there was a potato-famine like problem in China and India at the same time where they were unable to produce ANY food.  This would be 1/3 of earths population trying to feed themselves.  Both have nuclear weapons.  That is a VERY scary potentiality.

i'd say wood, salt, amber (if you count it), coal, iron, silver. and a lot of animals in the woods to hunt for them.

It depends where you live. In years past, and even today, areas along highways had high levels of lead in the soil due to the emissions from the vehicles on the road. Areas around nuclear facilities (particularly those with leaks!)are going to have more nuclear contamination. Along stream and riverbeds the soil will reflect whatever has been flowing by. Areas downwind from coal burning facilities have higher levels of acidity from sulfur mixing with rain to form acid rain. While each of these example is related to the activity of man, there are other contaminants that occur naturally, such as seepage from underground heavy metals and standing groundwater. Part of your answer will result from what you define as a contaminant. Salt is necessary for life, but salt levels that are allowed to build up will kill life (such as the area around the Dead Sea).
