Grizzly 399! (Wyoming)
Yellowstone National Park. Grizzly 399! Blurry picture, furry bear. This was super cool, especially noting the fact that she got hit by a car and died only four months later.

Baby Elk and Its Mama (Wyoming)
Yellowstone National Park. This little (or big) cutie pie was right outside our site in Grant Village, so I ran out and took a few pictures. I made sure to stay on the other side of the road—who knew?—it might be Feisty Frizzle and her baby! (See Feisty Frizzle, Critter Sightings.) The mama seemed a…
Bighorn Sheep (Wyoming)

White-tailed Deer at Olympic National Park (Washington)
Olympic National Park. This deer was spotted on the shores of Lake McDonald. (Hint! The rocks are NOT colorful! The lake is pretty, but don’t be deceived by the edited pictures on Instagram. We were.)
Lizard at Canyonlands NP (Utah)
Canyonlands National Park. This cute critter was skittering about, so I caught it. There’s not much to say about it, except that there’s not much to say about it. (This lizard is a Western Fence Lizard. They can grow to be eight inches long. There are 11 species of lizards at Canyonlands, including the northern…
