An Geamhradh/Winter

First of a two-part documentary series following the wildlife of Yellowstone National Park throughout the extreme conditions of winter and summer.

Chan eil 脿ite eile air an t-saoghal coltach ri P脿irc Yellowstone: F脿sach Beanntan na h-Oirthir, 脿ros airson fiadh-bheathaichean agus 脿ite cunnartach, ge貌lasach a tha a' t脿mh air uachdar bholc脿no 脿ibheiseach le mullach cho farsaing ri 45 m矛le. Ach, mar a sheallas na pr貌graman seo, tha an t-脿ite cuideachd na 脿rd-霉rlar airson cleasachd nam beathaichean fad na bliadhna. Le samhraidhean teth agus geamhraidhean re貌ite, 's e 脿rainneachd dhuilich a th' ann do na beathaichean a tha be貌 ann.

Tron gheamhradh, tha gach beathach a' str矛 ri fuachd fo 矛re reothaidh agus sneachd le doimhneachd suas ri 30 troighean. Tha an 脿rainneachd timcheall air na g矛osaran a' ciallachadh nach eil uiread de shneachd a' cruinneachadh agus tha seo a' toirt 脿ite-ionaltraidh do no b矛oson. 'S e 脿iteachan mar seo, a tha a' d猫anamh Yellowstone cho s貌nraichte agus eu-coltach ri 脿ite 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.
