On our recent quick trip to Rushmore and Yellowstone. These two were just strolling alongside the road minding their own business. These were taken from inside the car as I really didn't want to exchange greetings with these two. We also had one stroll by the passenger side of the car further back up the road. . .close enough to knock the outside mirror out of adjustment. Big critters!

All comments are welcomed and appreciated.

Thanks for looking

Thank you Lester! They are seriously large critters! We were driving our Honda CR-V, and they one that walked by the passenger side of the vehicle was almost as long as the CRV and just as tall. It would not have taken much for him to have tipped our vehicle over if he had wanted to do so.

The paper that the park service gives you when you enter the park tells you more people are killed and injured by buffalo each year than by bear attacks. What most people don't realize is how fast they can move once they've made up their minds to do so.
