What would happen if the bison disappeared (how would plants and other animals be affected)?

Answer:

Firstly, the grass by which the bison graze on would overgrow. It would keep growing and growing because there isn't a predator to prevent that from happening.

The predator of the bison would run out of food and thus go extinct. The predators of the predators of bison would run out of food and go extinct, as well. This would continue.

Eventually, there would be nothing but tons of overgrown grass.

Answer:

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

because bison are a big part of the food chain and if they disappeared the plants they eat would over populate and then it would make other animals prey easier to hide and then those other animals would start to stave
