Mission
PROVIDING LIFELONG SANCTUARY TO NON-RELEASABLE GREATER YELLOWSTONE ECOSYSTEM WILDLIFE WHILE PROVIDING A MESSAGE OF EDUCATION AND CONSERVATION.
-
YWS provides lifelong care to wildlife native to the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem that Montana Fish, Wildlife, and Parks has deemed as unable to survive if released back into their natural habitats. The wildlife were injured, orphaned, or habituated to humans. Providing lifelong care includes safe habitats, food, and medical care. As of 2022, resident species at YWS included: American Black Bear, Mountain Lion, American Badger, Bobcat, Canada Lynx, Gray Wolf, Coyotes, Red Fox, Bison, Raccoon, Sandhill Crane, Turkey Vulture, Crow, Raven, Owl. Raptors and Corvid, snake, and salamander. The total number of animals in YWS care declined with the passing of the Sanctuarys Mountain Lion, Canada Lynx, and gray wolves during 2022. Thirty-two animals remain at the Sanctuary.
Expenses $463,051
-
The wildlife residents at YWS have unique stories of survival creating an opportunity for public education. As indicated by our mission, sharing a message of education and conservation is a focus of the organization. During 2022, YWS conducted 40 school programs, 114 tours and encounters. The full program reached over 1,303 students through the programming. The program grew in 2022 from its low in 2021 (the pandemic) and now requires two fulltime educators to serve the demand for environmental and wildlife programs.
Expenses $45,155

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
