Yep. Thankfully the southeast US has always maintained a fire culture, so most of our fire adapted ecosystems have been maintained in at least some form or fashion.
The damage the USFS fire suppression campaign did in some parts of the country is unreal, and may never be overcome. Just one of the many consequences of trying to "tame the land".

Scientists debunk myth that Yellowstone wolves changed entire ecosystem, flow of rivers

"It's a lovely story, and I would love this to be true, but it isn't," Hobbs said. "[The video] is demonstratively false."
Hobbs, who uses the video to open many of his seminars, has written several research papers regarding Yellowstone's willows. His research indicates that wolves have had very little impact on willow growth since their 1995 reintroduction.

Fun fact…The whole Cajun prairie used to burn. Bison migrated almost to the gulf coast at one time. Red wolves were once prevalent throughout Acadiana. Not that long ago too I might add.

Turns out the wolves are fekking things up pretty well now. The gray wolves released were not the red wolves native to that area. They are significantly larger, more voracious, and produce larger litters. It's starting to adversely affect the elk and bison population.
It was a good idea and has had some benefits, but the plan wasn't completely researched and thought through.

So climate change did this? How does this fit in with climate change?

That was awesome.
And why we need hunters.

So all this because of 12 wolves? OK.
And I just checked. The wolf population in 2020 in the park was 94. Wolf population decreasing now overall. Not very good a propagating their species but very good at propagating other species. Who'd a thought?

We need to release some werewolves into the human population to clean out the stink.

Lotus Eaters - “Rewilding is a Terrible Idea”
Listen to the historical story of wolf attacks in Paris in 1427.
Wolves are dangerous and are historically apex enemies of humans.

I've seen several packs of wolves while hunting north if yellowstone. I'll never believe their wolf count numbers.
For example, there are badgers everyone in south dakota. I step in badger holes all the time or see them all the time. I have seen 1 badger.
I have seen 1 grizzley.
I have never seen a cougar.
But I have seen atleast 15 wolves.

Now do a video on how the Wolves grew so rapidly and spread out beyond the park and onto farmers' lands and killed all their Buffalo and cattle, this affecting their ability to provide for their families.
The park has a high fence.

Could have just opened a hunting season for the deer and elk with same results

Yeaaaa, just like the scientists who conduct the climate studies, their bias sway the findings drastically.
Go listen to the interview where Steve Rinella coddled one of these wolf experts that said the same thing about this study. She openly admits she is biased as hell, that women was never going to "find results of a study" that didn't shine on wolves positively.

So we should release 14 illegal immigrants into BR and in 25 years we'll have less crime?

That's all well and good until they start eating babies.

In the greater area there are over five hundred. You saw some of them. The population is declining because the ranchers hate them. I guess.
