摘要：J ack leads the way as we climb through the Ishawooa Hills southwest of Cody, Wyoming. When we get to a highpoint, he stops to look up a drainage into the Washakie Wilderness, perhaps anticipating one of his multi-day backcountry adventures. Not today. Jack the dog has brought his human with him, the elk ecologist Arthur Middleton. As one of the foremost experts on ungulate migration in North America, Middleton wants to show us this critical spot. He explains that the Ishawooa Creek watershed, which disappears ominously into the mountains from this vantage point, is a thoroughfare that 4,000 mule deer use seasonally to migrate from the South Fork of the Shoshone River into the high country of Yellowstone.
