That's great! Buffaalo Commons could become a new code word for the revitalization of Rural America and, of course, of suburban, wild and urban areas indirectly impacted by such an effort.
The concept of various species naturally causing holes in ecosystems is interesting. On a scale more manageable and less invasive than with herds of sabre-toothed tigers and mastodons, tolerance for and possibly encouraging this to happen within ecosystems, holes fillable by natural selection and succession, or by Man, might be a good thing as increased diversity and randomness might eventually result, as if they were giant edge zones, though not necessarily readily apparent as such.
