Stories From Yellowstone

Lesser Known Wildlife of Yellowstone

Yellowstone is known for bison and bears—but if you look closer, you might spot some of its lesser-known residents. From the tree-dwelling pine marten to the elusive Canada lynx and the aquatic antics of the American dipper, this guide highlights the park’s more secretive and surprising wildlife encounters.
