Securing the Future of Wildlife in Greater Yellowstone

Yellowstone is home to the magnificent grizzly bear, the elusive mountain lion and wolverine and, after a 60-year absence, the gray wolf. Across the ridges and valley floors of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, tracks reveal seven species of native ungulates — moose, bighorn sheep, mule deer, white-tailed deer, pronghorn antelope, tens of thousands of elk, and America’s last continuously wild population of bison. Bald eagles and trumpeter swans are among 300 species of birds in this remarkable region.[More]
