Yeah that Yosemite story is CRAZY. I am absolutely shocked that nobody was killed on those cables but very thankful that seems to be the way it all turned out.
The Atlantic story is really interesting -- I like that she ties it specifically to wildlife patterns, which would probably be the only palatable way for something like that to happen. There's a city park near me with two designated off-leash dog areas -- and they rotate a closure so that when one area is open, the other is recuperating from the previous months of use. It keeps both areas in good shape, and I'm kind of starting to think more parks and places could use a little bit of recovery time from us now and again ...
