Jimmy Jones Photography
Most of my work is wildlife. Although I do other genres. My preference is North American predators. The favorite being gray wolves. My love for wolves goes back to when I was a boy, I have always found them facinating. Having shot at various locations, I have found the choice location for wolves, grizzlies, and other large animals is Yellowstone.

It's been an opportunity to study wolf behavior while restoring an essential component to the natural world, he says. they study wolf behavior in Yellowstone National Park and serve as a catalyst in wolf behavior and research...The Yellowstone Wolf Genome Project
PROJECT OVERVIEW:
The highly successful reintroduction of western gray wolves to native habitats in Central Idaho (CID) and Yellowstone National Park (YNP) is testimony to how well a scientifically-based and carefully executed plan can succeed. The plan unfolded in large, high quality ecosystems that allowed wolves to flourish in the Northern Rocky Mountains, which began with 66 founding wolves with the initial reintroduction, and now estimated to be approximately 1,700. The challenge moving forward is the creation of wolf management plans that are viable, both biologically and politically. A critical issue all plans must address is the overall genetic health of the entire population. In fact, the recovery plan for delisting the wolf of the Northern Rockies required that populations be connected by genetically effective migration so that genes important to adaptation could be preserved and inbreeding minimized.
