It is survival by thermal area! An active heat source in parts of Yellowstone National Park creates a high concentration of thermal features, influencing the habitat of the park’s wildlife. This wilderness drama focuses on the migration of a young bison in a snow-bound Yellowstone landscape, and explores why the park’s thermal areas offer both critical winter habitat and dire hazards. Animations and illustrations bring the program to life, while video clips feature discussions of the park’s wildlife and stunning scenes of Yellowstone in the winter.
