Ngokusebenzisa izibonelo ezithathwe embhalweni nginikeze uhlu lwemvelo eyinhloko etholakala e-Yellowstone National Park.
Context:I-Yellowstone National Park iyipaki kazwelonke yaseMelika etholakala entshonalanga ye-United States, ikakhulukazi ekhoneni elisenyakatho-ntshonalanga yeWyoming futhi ifinyelela eMontana nase-Idaho. Yasungulwa yi- 42nd U.S. Congress nge- Yellowstone National Park Protection Act futhi yasayinwa umthetho nguMongameli u- Ulysses S. Grant ngo - March 1, 1872. I-Yellowstone yayiyipaki kazwelonke yokuqala e-U.S. futhi abaningi bathi iyipaki kazwelonke yokuqala emhlabeni. Le paki yaziwa ngezilwane zayo zasendle nangezici zayo eziningi ezishisayo, ikakhulukazi i-Old Faithful geyser, enye yezindawo zayo ezithandwa kakhulu. Nakuba limelela izinhlobo eziningi zezinto eziphilayo, ihlathi elisezansi kwentaba liyiningi kunawo wonke. Iyingxenye ye-South Central Rockies forests ecoregion.  Nakuba amaMelika Omdabu ayehlala esifundeni saseYellowstone okungenani iminyaka engu-11 000, ngaphandle kokuvakashelwa amadoda asezintabeni phakathi nekhulu le-19 leminyaka, ukuhlola okuhleliwe akuzange kuqale kuze kube sekupheleni kwawo-1860. Ukuphathwa nokulawulwa kwepaki ekuqaleni kwawela ngaphansi kwegunya loMnyango Wezangaphakathi wase-US, uNobhala Wokuqala Wezangaphakathi ukuqondisa ipaki uColumbus Delano. Nokho, ekugcineni iButho Lase-United States lagcina linikezwe umsebenzi wokwengamela ukuphathwa kweYellowstone iminyaka engu-30 phakathi kuka-1886 no-1916. Ngo-1917, ukuphathwa kwepaki kwadluliselwa eNational Park Service, eyayisungulwe ngonyaka odlule. Sekwakhiwe amakhulu ezakhiwo futhi zivikelwe ngenxa yokubaluleka kwazo ngokwakhiwa kwezakhiwo nangokomlando, futhi abacwaningi baye bahlola izindawo zemivubukulo ezingaphezu kwenkulungwane.  I-Yellowstone National Park ihlanganisa indawo engamakhilomitha-skwele angu-8,983 (4,468.4 sq mi), equkethe amachibi, ama-canyons, imifula nezintaba. Ichibi i-Yellowstone lingelinye lamachibi amakhulu kakhulu asezindaweni eziphakeme eNyakatho Melika futhi ligxile e-Yellowstone Caldera, intaba-mlilo enkulu kunazo zonke ezwekazini. I-caldera ibhekwa njengentaba-mlilo elele. Uye waqhuma ngamandla amakhulu izikhathi eziningana eminyakeni eyizigidi ezimbili edlule. Ingxenye engaphezu kwengxenye yamachibi omhlaba nemithombo yamanzi ashisayo itholakala eYellowstone, evuswa yilokhu kuqhuma kwezintaba-mlilo okuqhubekayo. Imifudlana ye-lava namadwala avela ekuqhumeni kwentaba-mlilo kumboza ingxenye enkulu yendawo yaseYellowstone. Le paki iyisikhungo se-Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, isimiso semvelo esikhulu kunazo zonke esisele cishe esingasakazekanga enyakatho yezwe. Ngo-1978, i-Yellowstone yaqanjwa njengeNdawo Yamagugu Omhlaba ye-UNESCO.  Kuye kwabhalwa amakhulu ezinhlobo zezilwane ezincelisayo, izinyoni, izinhlanzi, izilwane ezihuquzelayo nezilwane eziphila olwandle nasemanzini, kuhlanganise neziningi ezisengozini noma ezisengozini. Amahlathi amakhulu namadlelo ahlanganisa nezinhlobo zezitshalo eziyingqayizivele. I-Yellowstone Park iyindawo enkulu kunazo zonke futhi edume kakhulu ye-megafauna e-United States. Kuleli paki kuhlala ama - grizzly bear, ama - cougar, izimpisi, nemihlambi yamahhashi nezinkabi. Umhlambi wezinkunzi zaseYellowstone Park umhlambi wezinkunzi omdala kunayo yonke futhi omkhulu kunayo yonke e-United States. Imililo ehlathini iyenzeka kuleli paki unyaka ngamunye; emlilweni omkhulu wasehlathini wango-1988, cishe ingxenye eyodwa kwezintathu yale paki yashiswa. I-Yellowstone inamathuba amaningi okuzilibazisa, kuhlanganise nokuhamba ngezinyawo, ukukhempa, ukuhamba ngesikebhe, ukudoba, nokubuka indawo. Imigwaqo egandayiwe yenza kube lula ukufinyelela ezindaweni ezinkulu ezishisa umhlaba kanye nakwamanye amachibi nezimpophoma. Ebusika, izivakashi zivame ukungena epaki ngokuvakasha okuqondiswayo okusebenzisa izimoto ezihamba eqhweni noma izimoto ezihamba eqhweni.
Ngokuvamile ibhekwa njengepaki likazwelonke lokuqala emhlabeni, i-Yellowstone National Park ibaluleke kakhulu ngobukhulu, ihlanganisa izingxenye zeWyoming, iMontana, ne-Idaho, futhi isebenza njengezinhlelo zemvelo ezinkulu kunazo zonke ezisele. Leli paki likwazi ukusekela izinhlobo eziningi zezilwane zasendle ezibandakanya amabhere amaGrizzly, ama-puma, izimpisi, izimbuzi zasentabeni, imihlambi yamahhala ye-bison ne-elk, kanye nezinhlobo eziningi zezinyoni nezinhlanzi, ngenxa yokwehlukahlukana kwezindawo zokuhlala. Ezinye izingxenye zaleli paki zigcwele amahlathi namadlelo, kuyilapho ezinye zinikeza umuzwa ohluke ngokuphelele wezintaba, amachibi namathafa. Ezinye zezici eziyingqayizivele zaleli paki yizifudumezi namachibi. Eqinisweni, iYellowstone iyikhaya lezinto ezingaphezu kwesigamu zezwe ezinjengalezi. Lokhu kungenxa yokuthi ipaki lonke ligxile e-Yellowstone Caldera, intaba-mlilo enkulu kunazo zonke ezwekazini.
