From Holy Scripture:

"Prosper! Reproduce! Fill Earth! Take charge!
Be responsible for fish in the sea and birds in the air, 
for every living thing that moves on the face of Earth."
Then God said,
"I've given you every sort of seed-bearing plant on Earth 
and every kind of fruit-bearing tree,
given them to you for food.
To all animals and all birds, everything that moves and breathes,
I give whatever grows out of the ground for food."
And there it was. God looked over everything he had made;
 it was so good, so very good!
(Genesis 1 : 28-31. The Message)
