Theft and murder of native peoples resulted in the Mariposa Indian War which ended in 1851.

Nine years later President Lincoln named Yosemite Valley and Mariposa Grove as the country s first public preserve.

Giant sequoias and Mariposa Grove: Mariposa Grove is blessed with about 500 mature giant sequoias. Giant sequoias can live to be 3000 years old

and are known the largest living things on earth. Visitors can hike or take a tram ride to see Mariposa s sequoias.

Yosemite offers many camping options. There are 13 campgrounds and seven can be reserved (reservations are essential from April through September).

Prehistoric people probably ate wild onions long before farming was invented. Onions may have been among the earliest cultivated crops.

However they found that Native americans were already using wild onions in a variety of ways: eating them raw or cooked as a seasoning or as a vegetable.

The top onion-producing areas are Washington state Idaho-Eastern Oregon and California. The Ieading onion production countries are China India United states Turkey and Pakistan.

But by the 1990s white-tailed deer populations in parks had swelled to such size that many species of native wildflowers such as trillium

and lilies largely disappeared replaced by wild ginger and exotic species such as garlic mustard and Japanese stiltgrass plants not favored by deer.

A new study published online in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences concludes that an overpopulation of deer is the primary reason garlic mustard is crowding out native plants such as trillium

The study was initiated in 2003 at the Trillium Trail Nature Reserve in Fox Chapel Pa. by a team of researchers from the University of Miami and University of Pittsburgh.

To study the effect of rampant deer on trillium and garlic mustard populations the researchers established multiple 196-square-meter plots in the forest.

Years of observation and hours of statistical analysis later the team found that in plots where deer were excluded the trillium population is increasing

If the native plants are allowed to thrive rather than being consumed by deer the combined natural competitive advantages of those plants--including trillium--allow them to repel the outsiders.
