Samenvatting
Did you know that nearly half of the land of Wyoming belongs to the federal government? In fact, there are three national forests, a large amount of grassland, and many other large swaths of "public" land in Wyoming. Its famous national parks are administered by the U.S. Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Management. The state also contains the Devils Tower National Monument, the first national monument in the United States. The state is also the least populated of the contiguous 48 states. Although it is the 10th largest state by area, it is also the least populated. Unlike Rhode Island, which is 1,212 square miles and home to more than a million people, Wyoming is far less densely populated than its neighbors. But that's not to say Wyoming isn't full of interesting facts. In fact, many of the most fascinating facts about Wyoming are about the state's diverse wildlife. Cheyenne is the capital and largest city of Wyoming, located in the southeastern corner. The state is home to the famous Yellowstone National Park, which is the country's highest peak. At 6063 feet above sea level, Cheyenne is the 2nd highest capital in the US. Only Santa Fe, New Mexico, is higher. The state's original inhabitants were Native American tribes, which are now recognized by the federal government.
