Wildlife migration and movement is the heartbeat of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. It ebbs and flows as one of the most astonishing and ancient movement corridors on Earth. What barriers do these species face while traveling across their habitat?

We’ll learn all that and more in Episode 04. During this chat with the Greater Yellowstone Coalition’s Wildlife Program Coordinator Chris Colligan, we’ll learn about why wildlife moves, what wildlife crossings are and how they benefit both wildlife and humans, what projects are underway to enhance or maintain habitat connectivity, and the importance of preserving these corridors. We’re also excited to feature our first episode with questions submitted by listeners like you!

Why did the elk, deer, pronghorn, and more cross the road? You’ll learn why in Episode 04 | Wildlife Migration and Movement!


Voices of Greater Yellowstone was created by the Greater Yellowstone Coalition, a conservation nonprofit dedicated to working with people to protect the lands, waters, and wildlife of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, now and for future generations.

The Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem is the land of 49+ Indigenous Tribes who maintain current and ancestral connections to the lands, waters, wildlife, plants, and more.
