"Are Wolves the Ponghorn's Bestfriend?"

The Western States are debating whether the gray wolf should be removed from protection under Endangered Species Act. People had says that fewer wolves mean more coyotes and more coyotes means fewer pronghorn fawns. But, in their study, healthy wolfs keps the coyotes in number. Over a three-year period, researchers had more that 100 fawns without the wolfs in the Grand Teton National Park. In their resault, only 10 percent of fawns survieved in area with wolfs and had more coyotes. In the area without wolfs, more fawns survived (34 percent). The wolfs kill or cause the coyotes to shift into another area to reduce the number of coyotes.

I feel like wolves shouldn't be isolated from all the other animals because they are also a part of nature. How they live with other animals should be kept as it is. A species of animals may be alrger than another species. That's just how it is going to be. But I sometimes feel animals shouldn't be over powered by other animals. It's better if there are equal amounts of each species everywhere, but I know that that will not happen because animals have to survive. Aniamls have their own special way of living and humans shouldn't interfere with the way nature works.
