The Crown Jewels ‘What would Glacier Park be without the wonderful diversity of wildlife? They are all integral and interdependent upon each other and the natural world that Glacier Park preserves. Without our fellow creatures in all their splendid uniqueness, the world would not be as engaging as it is here in Montana. When I spot a mountain bluebird, a family of skunks, a Sand hill crane coming in for a landing, I stop, I engage and I feel inspired by the simple beauty of a fellow traveler. I am a part of the whole, part of the wonderful diverse world. Native people believe that everything you need to know in this world can be found in nature: the changing seasons, the patterns of behavior in other species, the acceptance of life and death… Perhaps nature is the best teacher in helping the human race to accept people of different persuasions, different skin color, different ways of living.’
