YellowstoneNP


The Yellowstone National Park section is a detailed portfolio containing several
multi-page sections with hundreds of images on Wildlife and Scenery of Yellowstone.
It compiles sections from the Animals Wildlife Studies on Bears, Elk, Pronghorn and Bison,
a section with 4 pages on Bighorn Sheep, Coyote, Moose, Deer and River Otter, and the
Wyoming Scenic section detailing scenic areas of Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons.
Also included is a new six page section on the Birds of Yellowstone National Park.

The first National Park, the Yellowstone region was set aside in 1872 by Ulysses S. Grant,
but poaching and destruction of natural resources continued unabated until the Army set up
a camp in Mammoth Hot Springs in 1886, some of which can still be seen. Procedures
developed by the Army to protect the wildlife and land were adopted by the National
Park Service when they were created in 1916. Many park areas carry the names
of early superintendents (e.g. Norris Geyser Basin), and Harry Yount, the first man
assigned by Norris in 1877 to guard the wildlife, is considered the first Park Ranger.

Yellowstone National Park contains within its 3500 sq. mi. the largest supervolcano caldera
in North America. The magma lake (centered below Yellowstone Lake in the southern part of
the park) provides the energy to power half of the world’s geothermal features, most of which are
in the southern part of the park (including geysers, mud volcanoes, hot springs, and other features).
