Out here I'm always trying to find ways of not doing the standard issue human thing (eating the planet, thinking of other species as disposable and unimportant, destroying everything in my path, etc), and it's not easy to find a balance between my interests and those of the various creatures who want to make a home on my space. This seems to be working out reasonably well. I'm lucky in that they have stopped invading my yurt (probably helps that I have a put Borax all along the circumference of it on the inside...doesn't kill them, but it's really irritating and they seem to learn from the experience).
