The challenge is in identifying the cause. The effect identifies itself.

I don't know if it's a cause-and-effect relationship. Was it because of fox removal? I don't know ... but it sure was weird.

Bad results are the symptoms not the causes.

It is often interesting, in retrospect, to consider the trifling causes that led to great events.

Can we say, in this case, that the cause of a cause is the relevant cause?

In every action we must look beyond the action at our past, present and future state, and at others whom it affects, and see the relations of all these things.
