Default RE: Wolves in Yellowstone- Planet in Peril! Joke

Elk and wolves has coexisted for thousands of years, continuously evolving inwhat biologist call an evolutionary arms race. When one gets the upper hand, the superior traits of the other excelas the inferior get picked off andthe race continues. So what makes you think that all of a sudden that the wolf in going to wipe out the elk of North America? The worst case scenario is a natural predation cycle, must like a climate cycle. Some years will be stacked with elk, and others will be stacked with wolves. The Natives dealt with it so why isn't it possible now?
