General Discussion

I attended a conference about the benefits of the reintroduction of wolves into Yellowstone
by some of the people who did that work or studied the results and the benefits of having
wolves are facts.

Example:
Elk prior to the return of the wolves used to eat the clones of Aspen trees along the
waterways and were like big cows but once the wolves came back the elk stopped
hanging out and eating the young Aspens and so they grew up and shaded the creeks
and river which cooled the water temperatures and dropped insects into the waters
which helped the native Cutthroat Trout which the bears liked to eat and there were
fewer bear vs human problems. Also the meadows grew up which helped in biodiversity
and in turn helped all kinds of critters such as pollinators, small mammals, foxes,
and birds of prey too.
