Did you actually read the whole article? That was just the first experiment. The keystone species hypothesis has been confirmed time and time again all across the globe, and it's a widely-accepted theory these days (to the extent where I, someone who's never studied ecology, already knew the theory and was surprised that it was developed so recently and was controversial when it was proposed).

- ktRolster 10y agoIf you want all the details, maybe you should read the actual study before criticizing someone who did a good study, but you're too lazy to realize it.
