Encompassing portions of Wyoming, Idaho, and Montana, Yellowstone National Park was established as a protected region by an Act of Congress which was signed into law by President Ulysses S. Grant in March, 1872. The area is widely regarded as the first national park in the world, and the greater ecosystem contained within the park is believed to be the largest remaining one nearly intact in the northern temperate zone of Earth.
