OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Environmental History of the Wildlife of Yellowstone National Park
Yellowstone National Park is the world’s first national park, founded in 1872. Large predators were decimated in the park, and wolves eradicated, but wolves were returned in 1996 leading to a ‘trophic cascade’ effect which has been studied in great depth. This research examines whether the changes seen post wolf reintroduction in 1996 are restoring Yellowstone to its original state, and whether historical sources can be used for biological research.
