Not sure if we are on the same page.

While managing woods, etc. has some validity, we do it for us to be more convenient. Infestations due to dead wood and forest fires do have their natural order.

And "humans being separate from nature": We do like to create our ideal environments, like beavers. Be it due to us having next to no fur or it being a widespread trait in mammals, who knows. But humans affecting every ecosystem with their machines and being everywhere should either not do that (like some tribes) or not being everywhere.
