My Everyday Photos

We’d been told it shouldn’t be too difficult to find a fox in Yellowstone but that wasn’t our experience. We got to see one as we were making our last drive through the northern part of the park. A number of other people were watching and photographing it so it was easy to spot. Several us photographed from the road but one person had made her way down into the draw to the viewer’s left and after a few minutes the fox got up and moved farther to the right. Maybe the animal felt that she had invaded its space? There are strict guidelines for watching and photographing wildlife in the park and no doubt, it is tempting to want to get closer. It appears that this animal has a case of mange or maybe an injury to its tail.
