Nativeness Notes
Although this species is native to North America, it is not endemic or indiginous to YNP. Its occurrence in the park is essentially accidental and well outside its accepted range (McEneaney 2004, NatureServe 2006, Sibley 2003). This suggests that it does not, and probably never did, regularly occur in the park. Thus, its nativity in the park is uncertain and could be classified as unknown or non-native.; Data Source: Terry McEneaney, YELL Ornithologist; Doug Keinath-Lead Zoologist-Wyoming Natural Diversity Database
