"And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good. And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them." Genesis 1:25-27God has filled the land around Whale Pass with many beautiful and interesting creatures. Finally God created man in his own image.
"And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth." Genesis 1:28
So God gave man responsibility for stewardship over "every living thing that moveth upon the earth." To us stewardship means wise use. To us stewardship implies sustainability. This is a great blessing and responsibility from God.
