Chan eil àite eile air an t-saoghal coltach ri Pàirc Yellowstone: Fàsach Beanntan na h-Oirthir, àros airson fiadh-bheathaichean agus àite cunnartach, geòlasach a tha a' tàmh air uachdar bholcàno àibheiseach le mullach cho farsaing ri 45 mìle. Ach, mar a sheallas na prògraman seo, tha an t-àite cuideachd na àrd-ùrlar airson cleasachd nam beathaichean fad na bliadhna. Le samhraidhean teth agus geamhraidhean reòite, 's e àrainneachd dhuilich a th' ann do na beathaichean a tha beò ann.

Tron gheamhradh, tha gach beathach a' strì ri fuachd fo ìre reothaidh agus sneachd le doimhneachd suas ri 30 troighean. Tha an àrainneachd timcheall air na gìosaran a' ciallachadh nach eil uiread de shneachd a' cruinneachadh agus tha seo a' toirt àite-ionaltraidh do no bìoson. 'S e àiteachan mar seo, a tha a' dèanamh Yellowstone cho sònraichte agus eu-coltach ri àite sam bith eile air an t-saoghal.

No place on earth is like Yellowstone National Park: Rocky Mountain wilderness, wildlife paradise and a dangerous geological hotspot resting on top of an enormous volcano, with a caldera 45-miles wide. But as Wild Yellowstone reveals, this extraordinary place is also a cauldron of gripping animal dramas, played out in burning summers and freezing winters, that constantly test its inhabitants. Every animal's story turns to one of endurance in the face of the coldest of temperatures and snows piling 30 feet deep.

Only the warm surfaces of geyser basins prevent deep snow accumulating, where North America's largest animals, bison, can find enough grass to eat. It is special hotspots like this that make Yellowstone unique, and like no other place on earth. Show less
