NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC TAPS INTO A COMMUNITY OF WORLD-RENOWNED WILDLIFE CINEMATOGRAPHERS AND PHOTOGRAPHERS TO BRING VIEWERS THE FOUR-NIGHT MULTI-PLATFORM EVENT "YELLOWSTONE LIVE"

More than 34 Live Cameras Will Capture America's Greatest Wilderness - The Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem - in Epic, Breathtaking Fashion Beginning August 5, at 9/8c

YELLOWSTONE LIVE is Simulcast on Nat Geo WILD from August 6 Through August 8

(Washington DC., July 31, 2018) Beginning Sunday, August 5, at 9 PM ET/ 6 PM PT, National Geographic will embark on the journey of a lifetime with the summer's biggest and boldest live television event, YELLOWSTONE LIVE, a four-night multi-platform extravaganza that will showcase the best of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem.

To complement the live broadcast, National Geographic will give viewers behind-the-scene access and the chance to experience more of the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem on the network's Facebook, Twitter and Instagram accounts.

National Geographic's filmmakers and photographers, an elite group of the world's greatest adventurers, photographers, filmmakers and researchers, will transport nature's outdoor theater straight to the small screen in real time when literally anything can happen.

YELLOWSTONE LIVE channels the following expertise:

· Bob Poole - Emmy Award-winning cinematographer who filmed hyenas in Ethiopia during National Geographic's EARTH LIVE

· Jeff Hogan - Emmy Award-winning cinematographer and wildlife photographer who produced National Geographic's WILD YELLOWSTONE

· Arthur Middleton - Ecologist; National Geographic Society Fellow and lead researcher in National Geographic's Beyond Yellowstone project

· Joe Riis - Ecologist; National Geographic photographer of animal migrations in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem

· Bob Landis - Wildlife filmmaker who is based in the Greater Yellowstone Area

· Doug Smith -National Geographic-funded scientist; wolf biologist in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem

These storytellers are at the helm of this unrivaled live broadcast, which sweeps through more than 22 million acres of wilderness, where approximately 400 animal species call home and more than four million tourists flock to each year. From stealth wolf packs on the hunt to 600-pound grizzlies invading campsites to the migration patterns of pronghorn sheep, National Geographic's experts will help tell the vivid story of Yellowstone from their accomplished perspectives and also underscore the importance of conservation.

"The Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem is a unique epicenter for animal migrations - for example, more than 20,000 elk in at least nine major herds travel the migratory corridors with Yellowstone National Park and its adjacent lands," says Arthur Middleton, an ecologist and National Geographic Society Fellow who leads the research on National Geographic's Beyond Yellowstone project. "These movements are the veins and arteries of the ecosystem and are a prime example of how no part of the western landscape can be separated from the larger whole. Through recent discoveries, we're able to better understand what threatens these migrations and how we can protect them."

"With its stunning landscapes and diverse wildlife, Yellowstone National Park embodies some of the best of what our country has to offer and is a testament to why we must all work together to defend these treasured places," says Theresa Pierno, President and CEO of National Parks Conservation Association (NPCA). "It's our hope that after people fall in love with the park and the entire Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, they will be transformed from visitors to champions."

From National Geographic's wilderness home base in West Yellowstone, host Josh Elliott will navigate viewers on our trek across America's national treasure. Chris Packham, animal expert, will join Elliott in studio alongside some of Yellowstone's native wildlife. In addition, YELLOWSTONE LIVE's "Roving Reporter" Jenna Wolfe will be in the field to interview key people whose lives and work are dedicated to maintaining the historic region. Together, they will give viewers access to prime locations across the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem - from the Gallatin Mountain Range and Lamar Valley to Old Faithful and much more.

YELLOWSTONE LIVE will be captured by a complex network of 34 live cameras, 200 crew, cutting-edge, first-ever cell-phone bundling technology to broadcast in the most remote locations, live-audience interaction; digital coverage on multiple platforms and innovative technologies including the following:

· A "Magma Cam," a thermal imaging camera, which will reveal Yellowstone's thermal features

· Aerial views of essential wildfire

· Aerial filming of a wolf pack in remote wilderness area

· Footage from inside a beaver lodge

And, join the conversation during the show itself, and help National Geographic name an adorable great grey owl by tweeting using #yellowstonelive and @NatGeoChannel.

YELLOWSTONE LIVE is produced by Plimsoll Productions in association with Berman Productions, Inc. for National Geographic. For Plimsoll Productions, Andrew Jackson, James Smith, Martha Holmes and Grant Mansfield are executive producers. For Berman Productions, Inc., Al Berman is executive producer. For National Geographic, Kevin Tao Mohs is executive producer.
