A sad outcome. Nature understands these things. We are still learning and have a long way to go.
Yes, with natural systems, there is usually a perfect balance, with healthy animals. Predators are very important in those systems.
The thing is -5000 hectares doesn't sound like very much land. I think in "acres" I'm afraid, so will have to research how "hectares" compare in terms of space. Introducing predatory species may be dangerous in a small country like Holland. It works in a place like Yellowstone.
I can imagine problems might arise with containment of a predatory species; Wolves, for instance.
For example, it is normal for a young male Wolf to leave his original pack and go out wandering, mate with an unrelated female, and they form their own pack. These male wolves are called "dispersers".
How would that work in 5000 hectares?
