Who Rules the Roost in Our Universe?????

Homo Sapiens. If this Latin nomenclature is defined as 'the species which is ruling the world' then most of the viewers of my blog will not find this explanation obnoxious to a great extent. But some silly and gruesome thoughts often erupt in my mind regarding this matter. Is the reign really ours? If we approve in favor of this question then why are we unable to escape the plunder caused by the turbulent tsunamis? And why cant we avoid the frequent earth tremors which are largely successful to shake our lives completely? We fall short of a plausible explanation for this and that we (in the current stage of scientific advancement) have no control over the earth's fury.
Lemme not use the term "nature's fury" here, cuz flora and fauna including all humans form a part of nature. And we are not frightened of any types of plants and animals around us. Are we? I can fall a hundred year old tree which may be very huge whenever I wish to. The other day I killed a leech sitting on my windowsill or can even kill a lion in the jungle as a pleasure hunt. These instances are evidences of our supremacy over them. So I call it earth's fury and not nature's fury. If we look back at the past we see that the dinosaurs, even when man caught a glimpse of them could scare the living daylights out of him. But yeah we are SAFE now :).. Thank god we have got rid of them. Even if they would have survived, we would stick a few wands in the dino's nostrils and then cast a few spells on it and it would fall down on the ground with a thud just like the troll in the Harry Potter's fantasies. Huh! it would have been damn adventurous. But my mind says it all very differently. Like if I make you admit that earth's fury defeats our so-called powerful species. Then it obviously holds some underlying force. We often study about the age of the earth by carbon dating. What if science in the not too distant future reveals that the earth is living? Just like we eat, sleep, and walk the earth also performs activities which seem to us like storms, cyclones, quakes and tornadoes. Actually non living things generally do not show locomotion as I was taught in class 6 (:p)... I call it the earth's fury but it would actually turn out to be the most supreme living element of the universe.
