what is a national park what are they
for are they a playground for us are
they for protecting bears and wolves and
bison if they got to be for both and you
have to do both without impacting the
other very much as you drive into
Yellowstone National Park there’s this
famous Roosevelt arch and on the arch it
says for the benefit and enjoyment of
the people one of the biggest challenge
that this project was working in
Yellowstone National Park and the nature
of Yellowstone being basically the most
famous National Park in the world this
felt that it had much more weight to try
and photograph something of that kind of
glory and also a place that’s been
photographed probably more than any
other place on earth my main focus was
the people I call it the Greater
Yellowstone Ecosystem saga because it
really is all these people as spread out
as they are all really interconnected
but the first time in my life for so
many people from different areas were
really charged about one place and it
says something about how powerful this
landscape is and what it does for people
people live there because they love
living in a wild place coexistence is
happening right now
wild animals yes they live in national
parks but they also live where we live
all my work is about people connected to
nature but this reinforced it
you know Wildlife Photographer get these
moments and in life and they come along
every few years I must have taken I
don’t know two hundred thousand half a
million photos of Ravens and one day
that picture Papa
done I have to carry I’m doing I did
carry on but my favorite photograph from
this project is definitely three wolves
feeding on a bison carcass along the
Yellowstone River and you have those
times where you you show back up the
camera anything well I wonder if any
animals pass through here and it looks
like nothing but then you check the back
of camera it’s like there’s the picture
I think it was the first day I was in in
the park
I saw a bison on the side of the road
and out of the corner of my eye I saw
this little red flash it is one of my
favorite pictures from the project too
and I took it on day one just put a
little happy accident you know my job
really was to celebrate the brilliance
of these Teton and Yellowstone National
Park and I think when we celebrate
things we inherently more of an
appreciation for them try and protect
them what is it meant for a hundred
years to live in and around part of the
world that we put so much importance
that were willing to protect it for so
long look at what nature can do look at
what nature can do to people it’s that
powerful it can lead our lives
we’re helping translate to the world
this vision of Yellowstone the funny
part of it is you have to become
obsessed to be able to do it
you can’t do any other one
Yellowstone lives and breathes wolves in
the last 20 years I wanted to photograph
them and bring that to light
