Social Media

 

Our Goals

We share authoritative and educational information about park resources, interpretive themes, conditions, employees, incidents, and projects.
Yellowstone frequently appears in the news, and misinformation can sometimes spread quickly. We use our social media platforms to provide the news media and the public with the most accurate, timely, and trustworthy information available—ensuring clarity, correcting misconceptions, and promoting informed understanding of park issues and events.

We want to build a vibrant virtual community of stewards and provide opportunities for that community to interact with park employees and each other.
Millions of people visit Yellowstone each year, each with their own unique experiences. Our social media platforms serve as a digital town square, where visitors can share their love for the world’s first national park—with us and with one another—creating a vibrant, connected community that extends beyond park boundaries.
