More than that,though,he has also interfered （干涉） with the invisible bonds between the living things in the forests. There are many examples
46、 of this kind of destruction. The harmfulness of mans interference can be seen in what happened many years ago in the forest of the Kaibab plateau （凯亚巴布高原） of northern Arizona.

50、 deer was permitted again. This caused a slight decrease in the deer herd （鹿群），but a far greater loss resulted from starvation （饥饿） and disease. Some 60 percent of the deer herd died in two winters. By 1930 the herd had dropped to 20,000 animals. By 1942 it was down to 8,000.65.The destruction of th
