Still Waters Posted February 24, 2014 #1 Share Posted February 24, 2014 (edited) When wolves were reintroduced to Yellowstone National Park in the United States after being absent nearly 70 years, the most remarkable "trophic cascade" occurred. What is a trophic cascade and how exactly do wolves change rivers? http://uk.screen.yah...ildlife-videos/ http://themetapicture.com/when-they-brought-these-wolves/ Edited October 14, 2014 by Still Waters Additional source link added 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Q-C Posted February 25, 2014 #2 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Wow. Fascinating. No animal is an island. And just since 1995? Did I hear that right? Since their reintroduction in '95? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Likely Guy Posted February 27, 2014 #5 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Wow. Fascinating. No animal is an island. And just since 1995? Did I hear that right? Since their reintroduction in '95? Yeah Canadian wolves, and now they're thinking about culling them again. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2013-09-03/killing-of-yellowstone-wolves-threatens-area-renaissance.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eaglesareskykittens Posted March 3, 2014 #7 Share Posted March 3, 2014 If anyone is interested in this topic I would suggest checking out William ripples work on wolves and trophic casacades. Where the wildthings were is also a really good book that touched on the topic. So is The Wolves Tooth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
