The Yellowstone to Yukon region is one of the world's last intact mountain landscapes. Stretching from Yellowstone National Park, where grizzly bears and bison still roam as they have for millennia, to the Yukon's ancient caribou migrations, this region still supports all of the plants and animals that were here when aboriginal guides led European explorers to the Rocky Mountains.
The Yellowstone to Yukon Conservation Initiative is often referred to as one of the world's leading landscape-scale conservation efforts, hailed as the "one hundred-year vision to protect the wild heart of North America." Y2Y and its partners have already made a deep and lasting mark on the region's wildlands, wildlife and human communities. From a handful of visionaries to a powerful Network of scientists, foundations, businesses and advocates, as well as more than 180 organizations collectively representing more than a million voices for conservation, Y2Y has grown from an innovative idea to a powerful on-the-ground reality. Achieving the Yellowstone to Yukon vision will set an example for the world to observe of how interdependent natural and human communities can thrive together.
Y2Y is a vision of hope--of a place on the planet that will persevere in its full high-mountain richness forever, while continuing to provide a wonderful place for people to live, work and raise our families. Y2Y works relentlessly to strengthen relationships between conservationists, industry and business leaders, government agencies and educational institutions with the view of working towards achieving a balanced approach to preserving our unique continental treasure.
