Luna, a Dog Who Was Lost in Yellowstone for a Month, Is Found Safe
Key Points:
- Luna, a 10-year-old Jack Russell Terrier/Chihuahua mix weighing 18 pounds, survived nearly five weeks alone in Yellowstone National Park despite the park's many dangers.
- She was found skinny, having lost about 10 pounds, but blood tests indicated she was in good health and expected to recover fully.
- Luna's owners, a retired couple from California, had left her locked in a rental cabin while visiting Norris Geyser, where dogs are not allowed; housekeeping staff inadvertently let her escape.
- The domestic animal rescue group Norris Ark Training and Recovery Center coordinated the search and facilitated Luna's reunion with her owners.
