Why were wolf populations removed from Yellowstone national park

Geography
1 answer:
Oduvanchick [21]3 years ago
6 0

In the 1800s, westward expansion brought settlers and their livestock into direct contact with native predator and prey species. Much of the wolves’ prey base was destroyed as agriculture flourished. With the prey base removed, wolves began to prey on domestic stock, which resulted in humans eliminating wolves from most of their historical range. Predator control, including poisoning, was practiced here in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Other predators such as bears, cougars, and coyotes were also killed to protect livestock and “more desirable” wildlife species, such as deer and elk.

The two tectonic plates meet at point one. One is moving under the other, shown by the two arrows on the top pointing towards each other. The denser plate (left side) is subducted. This means the denser plate begins to go under the less dense plate. The lithosphere (crust/tectonic plate) is mainly solid rock. As it begins to go into the mantle it will begin to heat up as the mantle is hotter than the surface. The solid surface becomes a molten rock, known as magma. It melts as it goes down.
