You're mixing up gender with sex

You'll grow out of being human one day. Or you'll get old and die. But your descendants will grow out of it.

Gender is a social construct and inherently malleable and subjective, which permits infinite diversity. Therefore, all claimed differences are inaccurate stereotypes.

Crocodiles live in rivers and ocean. Most of Australia is a desert. Crocodiles are actually classified as a least concern. They don't have a problem with global warming, they're reptiles. They ruled the earth last time it was this hot.

Thylacines were too small to take down a kangaroo, and hunted alone. Thylacines were also extinct on the mainland when the white invaders arrived.

Australia doesn't really have megafauna predation on the same scale as the other continents, except for humans. Invasive species have been so harmful to Australia because the indigenous species over there just aren't as... competitive. They don't have bears, or wolves, or moosen, or elephants, or big cats. It's a chiller vibe. Rabbit plagues are such a problem because there are no large scale predators to deal with them like in europe and the americas. Australia's ecosystem has been very fragile for tens of thousands of years. And humans have been managing it to keep it in balance for just as long. If you're talking about the natural state of Australia, it's one managed by humans, passing down conservation methods through oral histories over millenia. You're underestimating the wisdom and importance of aboriginal australians.

In Afro-Eurasia, recorded history began around 5,000 years ago, with the rise of the written word in Egypt and Mesopotamia. In Australia, recorded history is ten times longer. Intentionally recorded, with the specific goal of preparing people for the future with lessons from the past.

The natural predators of kangaroos are parasites, and indigenous humans. Indigenous humans haven't been eradicated, but colonisation and capitalism have harmed their ability to engage in traditional practices that maintain the land.
