Insects are going to be upset to discover that they are not the most successful and/or dominant creatures on this planet.
Actually, I can agree that in some areas, humans are the most successful and dominant species on earth, but certainly not in all ways. We are (sans technology and industry) one of the most ill-equipped species for survival on this planet in many ways. If you look closely at other species, you might find that they have evolved for success in their environments in utterly amazing ways. Look at all the insect, plant, and animal species that have evolved symbiotic relationships that allow each of them to flourish in a way humanity could never dream of. How are we more successfully evolved than they are?
