America's stories told by the Smithsonian

SMITHSONIAN CHANNEL HD

The Yellowstone River moves untamed through its 700-mile journey; trumpeter swans congregate; otters makes a daring portage down the cliffs; a grizzly sow fords rapids; fly fishermen take advantage of the swarm of salmon fly hatch.

Epic Yellowstone

Down the River Wild

Yellowstone's winged creatures survey the extraordinary landscape; the American dipper breaks winter's silence; sandhill cranes perform their courtship dance; bluebirds deliver food to their broods; an osprey fends off a peregrine falcon's attack.

Life on the Wing

Wolves are reintroduced after a 70-year absence; a lone wolf seeks to join the ranks of the Wapiti Pack; the endangered grizzly population makes a comeback; many of the bears are descendants of a legendary matriarch who is raising two new cubs.

Return of the Predators

Stories of wintertime survival include the park's toughest inhabitants; a bobcat hunts for waterfowl; otters find fishing holes; bison migrate to Yellowstone's geothermal core; a look at the park's geysers and hot springs through thermal imagery.
