At the divergent plate boundaries new oceanic lithosphere is formed in the gaps of magma coming up from the mantle. The magma coming up forms mid-ocean ridges. They form along mountain chains that are marked as boundaries between diverging plates.

Why were wolf populations removed from Yellowstone national park
Oduvanchick [21]

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.
