Acre for acre, there are few places in the nation that can boast the abundance of wildlife found the MonDak region. The number of wild species that thrive in the area is as varied as the different types of terrain they inhabit. Prevalent along the Yellowstone and Missouri River bottoms are the white-tailed deer whose numbers will astound the visitor. Much harder to spot than the relatively tame whitetails, mule deer stick to the thick patches of brush in the coulees during the days, only emerging onto the open plains to feed in the early morning or hours before dark. Although not as numerous as the early settler times, the sight of antelope feeding in the pastures alongside cattle is not rare.

In 2015 the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service listed the Northern Myotis as Threatened due to population declines and designated the species as present in nine counties in eastern Montana with an interim special rule under the authority of section 4(d) of the Endangered Species Act of 1973.

Yellowstone Country Differentiator: The “ Beyond Yellowstone” experience that can be found throughout the YC region; the primary reason people come to Montana is to visit Yellowstone National Park; however, once (or in addition to) the park experience, the region offers the opportunity to “get away from your getaway by heading north of the park”. Visiting the world’s most famous national park is a must for many people, but we want to broaden that experience to encompass what can be found just outside the park.

  • POPLAR, MONTANA COMMUNITY REVIEW Phase 2 July 16
    POPLAR, MONTANA COMMUNITY REVIEW Phase 2 July 16 – 17, 2018 A service of the Montana Economic Developers Association in partnership with Montana Department of Commerce, Montana State University Extension, the University of Idaho and the University of Wyoming. This project is supported by USDA’s Agriculture and Food Research Initiative (AFRI) of the National Institute of Food and Agriculture, Grant #2016-10945. It is part of the AFRI Foundational program. POPLAR PHASE 2 OVERVIEW The Montana Community Review process has three phases. We call these three phases Listen, Learn, and Launch. The Listen and Learn phases were successfully implemented with Poplar and the Ft. Peck Tribes; all of the people of Poplar rose to the action plan challenge, worked with the Visiting Team, and is now into the Launch phase in which the Coach and Steering Committee begin to work. This part of the Poplar Community Review Report will cover Phase 2, the “learn” phase. Following the Advance Team visit and the compiling of the Phase 1 Report, shoulders were tapped of specialists around the state who could address the issues the people of Poplar wanted to address. On July 16th, the Visiting Team arrived in Poplar and toured the area, similar to the Advance Team’s visit in May. Next, a working lunch was held with the Home Team, local leadership, and the Visiting Team to review the Phase 1 Report, briefly review the main topics and issues identified by the Advance Team, and to review the agenda for the rest of the team’s visit. Next, a two-hour session was held with the people of Poplar; those in attendance broke into small groups based on the topic of most interest to them.
