Darwin’s theory of “survival of the fittest” was apt for those times. The smaller animals were at the mercy of the bigger ones and the latter were at the mercy of the biggest and so on.

When it comes to thinking of the ideal place to live two things come to mind. The big bustling city or a small quiet town. My choice would be the small town for several reasons. One it’s quiet.
