The wildlife in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem are some of the most interesting and beautiful in the word. Sadly, many face man-made challenges, especially the ungulates that rely on migration for shelter and food as the seasons change. The pictures in this gallery were taken in the same locations depicted in the other galleries above. The Pronghorn "antelope" (not actually part of the antelope family) were photographed near Pinedale. The buffalo were photographed in Yellowstone National Park. The Elk were photographed in Jackson Hole and Yellowstone. The Big Horn Sheep were photographed in the National Elk Refuge, where they are quite accustomed to people and often try to lick the salt off the cars in winter. The Moose photos were taken in Jackson Hole not far from Kelly. I was fortunate enough to join a moose workshop led by Henry Holdsworth, a renowned wildlife photographer who owns the Wild By Nature Gallery in Jackson. Henry is a great artist, author and genuine moose whisperer who knows where to find them, how to approach them, and all the nuances of this fascinating species. Do yourself a favor, go to his gallery, buy some of his work, and take one of his workshops.
