Yeah, but what about our bodies, like?
If our bodies are still around? How many tonnes of dead flesh would (what is it now? six billion?) people be.
Hell of a lot of meat. And in some countries people are so full of preservatives and stuff on account of all the stuff in the food they eat, we shouldn't even bury them.
Lots of methane and stuff released if we are left to rot, too :dabs:

And what about domestic animals? Will they still be around?
"Small predators would diminish due to competition to an extremly feral human legacy - housecats"
The cats can take care of themselves, they are still wild at heart, it's the farm animals, all the pigs, and poultry, and cattle and so on, I'm wondering about.

Obviously the cat's will be fine. I believe that's the point he was making.
I shudder thinking about those vicious little beast roaming the planet unchecked.
