Wolfs are among many different species in the Yellow Stone national park, most species in Yellow stone are not given special protection therefore we should not give the wolfs extra protection. If we give the wolfs extra protection in the park it can hurt the ecosystem by taking away a species of prey from a predator.

In yellow stone there are many different organisms in yellow stones park like the wolf and the buffalo. buffalo's do not have special protection therefore if they don't have special protection then the wolfs or any other animal should not get extra protection.

# data[].attributes.body
The wolfs get special protection they will be able to reproduce with less of a struggle, therefore the changes to the wolf can cause the wolf to increase the population of the organism, so changes to the wolf can cause an ecosystem affect on the whole population of wolfs.

Once an ecosystem reaches carrying capacity or even goes above carrying capacity competition among the same species and different species for food can be really hard. once there is a giant population of an animal it can cause over hunting, extinction, and conflict between the same species.

prey's and predator's have always caused harm to an ecosystem. Like wolfs and the elk. they have a prey predator relationship therefore the wolf hunts the elk and if they reach carrying capacity or more the elk can become endangered, also the wolfs will end up in competition for the food which causes them to die off.

We can all agree that if one species gets over populated then they will continue to only hunt one to five species causing the prey to eventually become extinct or "hard to find." when these species become rare or extinct the predator can have a hard time hunting for food. the changes to a couple species can effect a major population of species

In the gizmo virtual lab, the black band disease took over the ocean, the animals rapidly started dying and the stoplight parrot fish increased in population then fell to zero. While everything else started dying the algae was the only organism left in year ten

Lets say the only two things in this ecosystem is  grass , elk and wolf's
lets say the wolfs don't eat grass. The wolfs will over hunt the elk then the wolfs will die from no food and the grass will be spreading like crazy.

In 1921 yellow stone reported 25 beaver colonies, in 1954 yellow stone reported 8 beaver colonies, but none of the colonies reported were the same ones as in the 1921 report. Today in yellow stone national park  there the y remain 9 beaver colonies.

Beavers need willows to build their dams but elk eat the willows which will harm the beavers and causes their population to decrease drastically. once the wolves came back to Yellowstone they killed allot of elk and which causes the beavers to thrive because there was not too many elk eating the willows which in this case the wolves helped the beavers repopulate.

It is more " right" for a predator to kill a prey rather than starvation because, predator and prey relationships are what ecosystems revolve around therefore if animals die of starvation it can have a major affect on the entire ecosystem.  An ecosystem is balanced when the natural animals and plants and non-living components are in harmony. predators will kill any old,young, or sick. as long as its food. If wolfs weren't protected in yellow stone then the elk will thrive causing  rivers to erode and for willows to die and other species and trees will die off. when the prey to a predator is sick it makes it easier for the predator to hunt.

when an ecosystem is in balance this means that the population of predators and prey are equal.

The deer population is in danger with the wolves they bring more species therefore the park will be better off with the wolves than without them.http://www.wolf.org/wolf-info/basic-wolf-info/biology-and-behavior/hunting-feeding-behavior/v

The population of wolfs will affect other animals like elk, and wolfs have a predator prey relationship; therefore, the less wolfs there are the more elk  there will be roaming the park. this is basically saying that when the wolfs are not protected there are less of them which is less wolfs to eat the elk causing the elk's population to rise. Even though a willow tree is just a tree you  would think that a wolfs population can really affect a tree well if you think this you are wrong, you see the more wolfs there are the more the beavers thrive and beavers love to make there colonies out of willow wood so the wolf's benefit the beavers which causes their population to increase; because the elk eat willows so the more elk there are the less willows which affects the beaver population. http://www.missionwolf.org/page/trophic-cascade/

Before I researched about wolves I thought that we should not save the wolves but now that I know wolves shape rivers landscapes and recreate other species, I now believe that Yellowstone should do all they can to save the wolves so that yellow stone can be better than before.

In the past twenty the wolves were reintroduced to Yellowstone. since then willow trees , beavers,birds, and even bison have benefited from the existence of wolves by killing the elk to the point were vegetation and reproduction of animals are starting to create. now the population of elk and wolfs are even.
