（单词翻译）

 Yellowstone, volcanic1 wonderland, two million acres of wild space, right in the heart of North America. The heat of the summer has unveiled the full extent of the Yellowstone wilderness2, and for a few precious months it has blossomed. But now, Yellowstone is changing.

In just a few weeks, the snow and ice of winter will be back. As the animals of Yellowstone now turn to face perhaps the biggest challenges of their year. The true value of the world's first national park is about to become clearer than ever.
 
It's late August. And on Yellowstone's peaks, there is already a dusting of fresh snow. Now a new sound marks the new season. Fuelled by testosterone, the bugle3 call of this male elk4 is a boast of his strength.
