This is VERY interesting doc about the reintroduction of wolves to Yellowstone National Park in 1995 after 70 years absent.

The impact a small amount of wolves is staggering after looking back. There is now a solid base of evidence supporting the hypothesis and it's pretty legit.

Enjoy.

Hunting is not allowed in yellowstone. I'm not sure if it ever was. If this is in fact true, it's the governments fault for not allowing hunting and population control in the beginning.

I saw it a while back. Very interesting. They should introduce wolves to the LA marshlands to save y'all from a watery grave.

Pretty cool to see nature do what nature has done since the dawn of time.

Nature will keep adjusting long after we're gone. Sorry to ruin your narrative Al.

Predator control at the behest of hunters and ranchers is one of the things out of whack in the west to begin with. I'm not against hunting at all, far from it, but it's not a panacea for everything and has caused its own set of issues.
