Pregaming 4: Ecology

There are rumors of a population of feral humans living in the Ozarks. Mustangs, bison, wolves, puma, and bears range coast to coast, as well as introduced populations of pythons and monkeys in Florida, lions in Texas, tigers in Pennsylvania, Texas Longhorns and Camels in the Southwest. California Condor have expanded their populations with the resurgence of the megafauna.

Something very strange is going on with the crows.

A single herd of Indian elephants has been introduced to the southeast, and observing this herd is one of the major objectives of the Five-Man-Band.

North America isn't used for agriculture because the Sahara has been converted into a collection of colossal farms for genetically engineered crops, easily out competing other farms in the world market.

Recurrent themes include the ecology of fear, dynamic disequilibrium, the tautology of evolution, the red queen, sources and sinks, the selfish-gene-fallacy, and evolution as a way to understand life.
