  • Author : Douglas W. Smith
  • Publisher : University of Chicago Press
  • Release : 2020-12-28
  • ISBN : 022672848X
  • Pages : 358 pages

Download or read book Yellowstone Wolves written by Douglas W. Smith and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2020-12-28 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This beautifully illustrated volume on the Yellowstone Wolf Project includes an introduction by Jane Goodall and an exclusive online documentary. The reintroduction of wolves to Yellowstone National Park was one of the greatest wildlife conservation achievements of the twentieth century. Eradicated after the park was first established, these iconic carnivores returned in 1995 when the US government reversed its century-old policy of extermination. In the intervening decades, scientists have built a one-of-a-kind field study of these wolves, their behaviors, and their influence on the entire ecosystem. Yellowstone Wolves tells the incredible story of the Yellowstone Wolf Project, as told by the people behind it. This wide-ranging volume highlights what has been learned in the decades since reintroduction, as well as the unique blend of research techniques used to gain this knowledge. We learn about individual wolves, population dynamics, wolf-prey relationships, genetics, disease, management and policy, and the rippling ecosystem effects wolves have had on Yellowstone’s wild and rare landscape. Featuring a foreword by Jane Goodall, beautiful images, a companion online documentary by celebrated filmmaker Bob Landis, and contributions from more than seventy wolf and wildlife conservation luminaries from Yellowstone and around the world, Yellowstone Wolves is an informative and beautifully realized celebration of the extraordinary Yellowstone Wolf Project.

Introduction The Yellowstone Drainage supports the largest inland population of native Yellowstone Cutthroat Trout on Earth. The Yellowstone Cutthroat Trout is considered a shared resource in Yellowstone Lake: Grizzly Bears, Black Bears, Bald Eagles Golden Eagles, Pelicans, Osprey, Great Blue Herons, Kingfishers, Gulls, Grebes, Terns, Loons, Mergansers, Mink, Otters, Wolves and Coyotes prey upon Yellowstone Cutthroat Trout. In the Yellowstone drainage 200,000-pounds of Yellowstone Cutthroat Trout are eaten each year by these animals and birds. Yellowstone Lake is the largest fresh water lake in the United States above 7,000-feet, it’s altitude is 7,733-feet above sea level. The Yellowstone Lake encompasses 136 square miles, it is 20-miles long, 14-miles wide and has 110-miles of shoreline. Yellowstone Lake is 320-feet deep at its deepest point. The average depth is 139-feet. Yellowstone Cutthroat Trout generally inhabit the upper 60-feet because their food source rarely occurs below that depth. The average surface temperature in August is 60 degrees Fahrenheit; the bottom the temperature never rises above 42 degrees Fahrenheit. The serenity of Yellowstone Lake can suddenly change with afternoon thunderstorms and their accompanying winds. These winds can routinely produce 3-foot waves or larger within minutes on Yellowstone Lake. With water temperatures averaging 41 degrees Fahrenheit you can develop hypothermia quickly if your vessel capsizes. Fishing season in Yellowstone Lake opens June 15th each year, usually! There are 124-tributaries the Yellowstone Cutthroat Trout use for spawning including the largest tributary, the Yellowstone River. These spawning tributaries open July 15th each year, however some remain closed all year. The use of all lead fishing tackle is band; fisherman must use Non-Toxic alternative products. The West Thumb geyser basin area has intense heat in the lake sediments, which indicate a shallow thermal system underlying this more recent caldera. If the lake level should fall just a few feet, an immense steam (hydrothermal) explosion could occur here. Mary Bay and Indian Pond now show evidence of these craters.

Book Before Yellowstone

  • Author : Douglas H. MacDonald
  • Publisher : University of Washington Press
  • Release : 2018-02-02
  • ISBN : 0295742216
  • Pages : 241 pages

Download or read book Before Yellowstone written by Douglas H. MacDonald and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 1872, visitors have flocked to Yellowstone National Park to gaze in awe at its dramatic geysers, stunning mountains, and impressive wildlife. Yet more than a century of archaeological research shows that the wild landscape has a long history of human presence. In fact, Native American people have hunted bison and bighorn sheep, fished for cutthroat trout, and gathered bitterroot and camas bulbs here for at least 11,000 years, and twenty-six tribes claim cultural association with Yellowstone today. In Before Yellowstone, Douglas MacDonald tells the story of these early people as revealed by archaeological research into nearly 2,000 sites—many of which he helped survey and excavate. He describes and explains the significance of archaeological areas such as the easy-to-visit Obsidian Cliff, where hunters obtained volcanic rock to make tools and for trade, and Yellowstone Lake, a traditional place for gathering edible plants. MacDonald helps readers understand the archaeological methods used and the limits of archaeological knowledge. From Clovis points associated with mammoth hunting to stone circles marking the sites of tipi lodges, Before Yellowstone brings to life a fascinating story of human engagement with this stunning landscape.
