The agencies that manage Yellowstone National Park say that human impact is harmful and “unnatural.” This is another anthropological myth based on ideology rather than natural history and science.

As discussed in the article below, hunter-gatherers have been interacting with Yellowstone for at least the past 11,000 years. These early Indigenous people discovered, explored, braved, revered, hunted, and mined the Yellowstone region long before Euro-American settlers arrived.

In fact, the so-called “natural” state in which Euro-Americans found Yellowstone was a human artifact, created and maintained by the Native Americans. Good intentions notwithstanding, it is Euro-American man’s attempt to eliminate people and their actions from the natural systems of Yellowstone that is responsible for its habitat and wildlife decline. Recognizing this simple fact is the first step toward repairing the damage.
