Who, knows?

This shows how herbivores (browsers in this case) can have a major impact over time?

Not sure about grazers, like most rhino here... -O-

Hmmmm....... very interesting \O
We visited Yellowstone in 1996 and was very fortunate to have a brief sighting of the one of newly introduced wolves O\/
Seems like we will have to go back again to see how the park has changed O**
