When wolves disappeared from Yellowstone National Park, the deer population increased. This led to overgrazing, which negatively affected the vegetation and overall ecosystem, including the willow tree and other plant populations. With fewer predators, deer were able to thrive and consume more vegetation, leading to significant ecological changes.
