Kit Carson was made for enjoyment of humans to have a fun and amusing time. We can describe this as human interaction. Human interaction pertains to activities such as jogging walking, doing sports, and everything you can do at a park. Human Interaction doesn’t have to be a bad thing, but sometimes it humans do things that affect others, such as the animals. When humans have birthday parties, barbeques, and picnics, littering happens. This affects the animals because they think its food and eat it, resulting in them dying. Littering or feeding the animals are the two bad human interactions that do not contribute to the lively future of the park.

For years, man and nature have coexisted in harmony, but in recent years, man and nature have become increasingly disconnected, as air conditioning, GMO’s, and other innovations have been made to combat the natural way of life. Some people, such as Christopher McCandless, wish to be one with nature again. As his journey into the Alaskan wilderness proved, nature and man have a glorious and close, but sometimes the unforgiving and hostile relationship, as some men admire nature, but nature is not forgiving of simple mistakes as some minor misdoings can seal one’s fate. This is proven in Jon Krakauer’s novel, Into the Wild, as nature was unforgiving of Christopher’s mistakes while attempting to survive in the Alaskan wilderness. This relationship
Though many look at Chris McCandless's journey to Alaska as a waste. I truly feel that his extraction from society and its ongoing noise and distractions was necessary for him.

The Alaskan Bush is one of the hardest places to survive without any assistance, supplies, skills, and little food. Jon Krakauer explains in his biography, Into The Wild, how Christopher McCandless ventured into the Alaskan Bush and ultimately perished due to lack of preparation and hubris. McCandless was an intelligent young man who made a few mistakes but overall Krakauer believed that McCandless was not an ignorant adrenalin junkie who had no respect for the land. Krakauer chose to write this biography because he too had the strong desire to discover and explore as he also ventured into the Alaskan Bush when he was a young man, but he survived unlike McCandless.
