Wolves didn’t “fix” Yellowstone because ecosystems aren’t machines. Elk, beavers, bison, drought, trails… everything interacts.
What remains consistent? Human impacts still drown out ecology. Yellowstone exposes the myth of ecosystem resilience.

Reintroduced Carnivores’ Impacts on Ecosystems Are Still Coming Into Focus - Inside Climate News

The biodiversity aka Life-On-Earth collapse wave will hit us sooner and deadlier than expected™️ It will hit us together with the smaller climate change wave.
There will be no 1.5°C to pass because we never dared to define a benchmark other than 0% aka extinction. There is no extinction overshoot.
