Our Backyard - How Can We Support Wildlife & the Ecological Integrity of the Greater Yellowstone

Join George Wuerthner to learn about the history of the Greater Yellowstone area, the impact on the abundant wildlife by the "western expansion" and how we can help preserve and protect our unique and special ecosystem, including the wildlife in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem - the only intact ecosystem in the lower 48 with all of its original animals. George Wuerthner, ecologist and author describes the treasures of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem and why it is a global model for conservation. And how we can work to preserve this unique temperate zone ecosystem into the future. George Wuerthner is an ecologist, writer, and photographer who has published 38 books, including Protecting the Wild: Parks and Wilderness, the Foundation for Conservation; Keeping the Wild: Against the Domestication of Earth; Wildfire: A Century of Failed Forest Policy; Montana, Magnificient Wilderness; and three books on Yellowstone National Park. George has extensive on-the-ground experience with protected landscapes having visited more than 400 designated wilderness areas, more than 200 national park units, and every national forest in the West. He has previously taught environmental studies and ecology field classes for a number of universities. He also has worked as a botanist and biologist for the Idaho BLM, wilderness guide in Alaska, a river ranger on several Alaskan Wild and Scenic Rivers, and a Backcountry Ranger in the Gates of the Arctic NP in Alaska.
