Yellowstone in Winter - Part 17 - Wolves and Bison

Tuesday, 30 January 2018

On today's journey through the northern reaches of the park, we again saw the Eight Mile Pack from a much closer, but still long distance (roughly one mile).

Can you tell the wolves from the rocks in this photo?
Five wolves. The left one is a gray female, the others are black. They were more convincingly wolves through a spotting scope.
These photos show more clearly that they are indeed wolves, not rocks! The black male stood up (top), stretched (bottom right), then the gray and the black showed some interest in each other (bottom left).
We watched the gray female wander through this herd of bison - twice. The bison paid attention, but were not terribly concerned.
