Rebecca Lawrence puts a screen over a whitebark pine so crews can later collect the seeds from the cones on July 30, 2009, in Glacier National Park, Mont. The screens keep the squirrels and birds from feeding on the cones. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service last month proposed listing the whitebark pine as threatened under the Endangered Species Act. For the last 24 years, Glacier National Park has been quietly working to conserve the species over its 1 million acres of wildlands. (Chris Peterson, Hungry Horse News/The Daily Inter Lake via AP)
