Summary:
In 1995, the gray wolf was reintroduced to
Yellowstone
National
Park
after a seventy-year absence. All these years later, we can clearly see the cascading effects this has had on the
park
's ecosystem. This is a spectacular example of a trophic cascade, the term used when an important member of an ecosystem goes missing and many other living things are indirectly affected, causing a chain reaction of events. In the case of the reintroduced wolves of
Yellowstone
, the chain reaction went as far as changing the behavior of waterways and the surrounding geology. This book is a fascinating exploration of the transformations that have taken place in
Yellowstone
National
Park
since the wolves returned
--
including the monumental changes to the landscape and to all the animals that live there
--
clearly told through lively narrative and food web infographics.
