TL;DR

Show more animals. Visual only.

What ?

Suppose you cut down a tree, and little flying aliens scatter, or you run over a fallen log, and tiny bugs flee for their lives. As areas become more and more polluted, you see less wildlife, and hear less chirping.

The actual effect of wildlife scattering should be a particle effect, and purely visual.

Why ?

I noticed back with the miner drill re-design that devs wanted to drive home the idea of killing the planet. Currently the only victims are the trees and grass...the biters deserve it.

Itd be a really nice visual effect, and fit the style nicely if you could see innocent, harmless little creatures running for their lives as you burn down Forrests, and flatten the ecosystem around you.
