    Yellowstone National Park is one of the world's last and most spectacular wildernesses. It is also home to some of the richest wildlife beyond the plains of Africa. This landmark series follows the intertwining stories of Yellowstone's iconic inhabitants: the grey wolf, the grizzly bear and the herds of antelope and buffalo. In a land of beauty and peril, the dramatic lives and fortunes of these animals are inexorably bound together.
    Welcome to BBC EARTH! The world is an amazing place full of stories, beauty and natural wonder. Here you'll find 50 years worth of entertaining and thought-provoking natural history content. Dramatic, rare, and exclusive, nature doesn't get more exciting than this.

    My family moved to Jackson, Wyoming in 1988 and soon after, the Yellowstone fires started. I remember seeing Yellowstone before and the year after, with everything burned. Gradually, the lodgepole pine grew back in force and what burned then is now a 30 year old strong, healthy forest. Fire is integral to our region.

      Yes, but unfortunately people got too good at stopping fires in the late 20th century, so there is decades of deadfall everywhere that should have burned long ago. There is too much fuel, which makes fires harder to control now.

      Some trees and foliage have evolved with wildfires, to the point where their seeds can only be opened in the presence of fire. Not all fire is harmful, if it's natural and controlled. Smokey the Bear refers to unnatural, uncontrolled fires, which are harmful and can burn everything instead of a small area.

    • @TheStockwell
      @TheStockwell Місяць тому +2

      No offense intended, but Smokey's mantra was "Only you can prevent FOREST fires." The campaign was created because post-WWII campers were driving to parks in record numbers - and had to be told how to put out their campfires completely because, you know: forest and park officials were tracing FOREST fires to campfires.
      If Smokey were around today, he'd either be sounding the alarm about man-made climate change and getting drunk with David Attenborough - or saying climate change is a hoax created by China, Al Gore, and Greta Thunberg.
      He's a bear, so it's hard to predict his reactions to things, you know? 🐻

    I love how he says the animals will starve to death this winter without the Pine Forest. Lodgepole Pine forests are a dessert to 99% of Wildlife. they produce almost nothing edible other than pine nuts that only benefit squirrels, pine martins and some birds. Animals do far better in areas that have been burned or clear-cut that they do in the black forest.

    Last year, and starting again this spring, even more intense and devastating fires are burning in Western Canada. In the past five years, fires in CA and CO burned over the Sierra and Rocky Mountain crests, respectively. Both were unprecedented.
    North America is by no means the only continent experiencing such conflagrations. Wildfires are driven by fuels, weather, and topography. Climate change is driving the first two.
