The Wolves Among Us in Yellowstone
To become the world’s Top Predator, we also have to eliminate the competition. We’ve waged war on America’s wolves for two centuries. For decades, eliminating wolves was an official federal policy. Shane joins Yellowstone National Park’s wolf recovery lead, Dan Stahler, to investigate a fresh kill and learn why humans can’t replace the role that wild predators play in our ecosystems.
