Final answer:

The reintroduction of wolves in Yellowstone National Park had a significant impact on the deer, elk, and moose populations.


Explanation:

When wolves were wiped out of Yellowstone National Park in the 1930s, the deer, elk, and moose populations underwent significant changes. The absence of wolves led to an overpopulation of elk and led to the degradation of vegetation and ecosystems. Upon the reintroduction of wolves in 1995, the ecosystem began to rebalance as the wolves controlled the elk population and allowed vegetation and other species to thrive.
