-SOURCE-"The catastrophic decline around the world of "apex" predators such as wolves, cougars, lions or sharks has led to a huge increase in smaller "mesopredators" that are causing major economic and ecological disruptions, a new study concludes." "The findings, published today in the journal Bioscience, found that in North America all of the largest terrestrial predators have been in decline during the past 200 years while the ranges of 60 percent of mesopredators have expanded. The problem is global, growing and severe, scientists say, with few solutions in sight."
This looks bad.

Hmm is this bad or another evolutionary change ... I know we helped it along ... and probably sped it up about 10x the rate it was going but would have eventually happened anyways?
