Learn about ecosystem resilience and nature-based land use choices. This case study presents ranchers playing the role of keystone predators among their flock, and the ecological and economic benefits they have gained as a result.

Through engagement prompts and activities, students will discuss the cause-and-effect relationships of human land use choices and analyze historic case studies, such as The Dust Bowl, as analogues to issues facing ranchers and farmers today.
