Are Some Species More Important Than Others? || IN OUR NATURE

“In Our Nature” is a NEW special limited series on It’s Okay To Be Smart! SUBSCRIBE so you don’t miss the next episode! ►► http://bit.ly/iotbs_sub ↓↓↓ More info and sources below ↓↓↓ Seemingly distant ecosystems, even half a world apart, are connected in surprising ways. In this special limited series, Emily Graslie and Trace Dominguez join me as we explore the universal rules of life that tie together Earth’s living systems. In episode 1, we travel from Africa’s Serengeti plains to the nearly extinct prairies of the western United States to discover the unexpected species that determine the very existence of these places. Can an ecosystem survive without its keystone species? And can we restore endangered human cultures by bringing back a nearly-extinct ecosystem?
