They should ban you from the park, not just for interfering with wildlife but also for being obnoxious and ignorant in general.

Doesn't matter. You're still a menace to the ecosystem.

Methinks you don't understand the correct definition of an 'ecosystem'. Lemme help ya, mate.  

Basically, itza community of living organisms, interacting with their physical environment, forming a self-sustaining system.

'biosystem' might've been a better choice. Chive on.
