Bighorn Sheep (Wyoming)
National Elk Refuge, Jackson Hole, Wyoming. These guys weren’t exactly cute, and they also weren’t the type of bighorn sheep we were used to seeing. I actually thought they were Dall’s sheep at first, haha. 😏 But when we went home, I looked in a field guide and discovered that no, they weren’t Dall’s sheep….

The pathway was just basically a sidewalk, one side being a drop-off into the Pacific Ocean, and the other being a steep but short bank. That’s where we saw…
Feisty Frizzle (Wyoming)
Yellowstone National Park. Since we were spending the whole summer in Grant Village, we decided to name the local elk (although, to be honest, there was technically no way to tell if an elk was a different one or not). We came up with Feisty Frizzle. (The “feisty” part came from her charging a dude…
That’s so cool! Elk are a lot like deer right?
