| Description: | More than 200,000 gray wolves (Canis lupus) once lived throughout the United States. However, wolves were eradicated from most of the country by the mid-1930s. Reintroduced to Yellowstone National Park and Central Idaho in 1995 and 1996, wolves have been recovering steadily. Now federal officials are attempting to eliminate protections for wolves, allowing states to kill as many as 70% of the wild wolves in Greater Yellowstone and the Northern Rockies. For more than 35 years Defenders of Wildlife has been a leader in the fight to restore wolves in the American West. This blog is meant to serve as an open forum for the many people interested in this highly controversial and passionate issue. |

Wolves = Awesome for our public lands
This is a great article that covers in-depth the importance of top predators, like wolves, to biodiversity in ecosystems. Where wolves are found you will also find an ecosystem that is healthy and strong and teaming with biodiversity - and make no mistake about it, in the greater Yellowstone area the wolves are the reason for this re-emergence of this native species biodiversity. It's all connected. Ecosystems need balance and when they don't have top predators, as the article points out, the whole ecosystem and balance shifts. It
