Residents safe
Actor Harrison Ford and his wife want to protect the other residents of their Snake River property — two bald eagles, red-tailed hawks, moose, elk, deer and trumpeter swans — so they have put 53 hectares in a conservation trust.
Ford, best known for his roles as the swashbuckling archaeologist Indiana Jones, and Melissa Mathison, have donated the easement to the Jackson Hole land trust.
Two creeks are home to cut-throat trout and the property had the largest great blue heron rookery in Wyoming, said the trust’s executive director, Jean Hocker.
“It’s hard to imagine such a place covered with buildings, but that certainly could have happened some day. The Fords have done a splendid thing by making sure that it never will.”
