Wolves and Biodiversity

Check out this awesome video which shows what happened to the biodiversity in Yellowstone National Park when they reintroduced Wolves that had been missing from their ecosystem for 70 years.  
Upon their reintroduction, the park completely transformed. The populations of many other species increased, as did the health of the park, overall. While wolves are often considered to be harmful species, they can actually transform the world around them. They greatly increased the biodiversity in this treasured ecosystem.
