Nativeness Notes
The lesser goldfinch is native to North America and its accepted range includes southern Wyoming (e.g., Sibley 2003), so it would likely be native if it occurred in YNP.; Data Source: Terry McEneaney, YELL Ornithologist, Doug Keinath-Lead Zoologist-Wyoming Natural Diversity Database
