So in short if they just allowed more deer harvesting by hunters, no need for wolves.

I thought that also, but it said that the wolves changed the pattern of the deer. So the hunters would have to be out there full time chasing deer around.

Not really. That would only be to make the river exactly as it is. It would still be beneficial to the ecosystem. The deer won't be foraging along the river if there are campsites all along it with people trying to kill elk.

However, whatever change occurred, who says it's better or worse? Is the world better without humans? What does "better" mean in that regard?

Fucking beavers are destructive as fuck. You can bet downstream farms suffered when the little varmints damned up the river, but then wolves are eating the livestock so they have fewer mouths to feed anyhow.

You have to love those one sided propaganda bullshit "documentaries".

Just drink the fucking Kool-Aid and think there is hope, and go to sleep with that warm fuzzy feeling you probably need.

Yes please. It's an interesting headline. I'd like the nuts and bolts. I'm thinking about putting in a half court at home and now I'm wondering if I could incorporate wolves into the process to save some costs.

hunters fuck things up.

The asshole ranchers and the politicians they own want to kill the wolves so human meat eaters can have their burgers and steaks.

Meat is just about the WORST food for ecology, esp for an ecology under stress in the anthropocene.

I need an AR-15 with a thermal imaging scope, a suppressor and subsonic rounds and I can make a difference in that park.

wolves are quite happy with deer, bison, coyote, even wild horses (a huge govt mgmt problem), don't need no ranchers and their protein-sink herds.

this is article does not deny wolves had no positive impacts on yellow stone. He is just saying reality is much more complex... No shit Sherlock ? I believe any adult with a bit of brain understands a video of 4 min pointing out positive effect of wolves is not a complete and unique explanation.

your bitching here is dumb

the article is a nice complement and put stuff on perspective
