Glacier Animal Identification Updates

It's that time again! Rebekah's family was in town a couple weeks ago and we took them to Glacier and really hit the jackpot for animal sightings. I thought I would start out with the new identifications by updating some of the animals already featured in this series:

Bighorn:

Rebekah was able to catch a video of some young bighorn practice their head crashing skills. We also got the chance to pick up a bighorn skull in the discovery center (there were lots of fun things in there). Their horns are really heavy, I'm glad they don't like to headbutt people.

Marmot:

As always the Marmots were not shy for attention. Once we reached Cracker lake we had one very curious hoary Marmot walk right in front of me posing every few seconds.




But not all the attention went to the marmot:

Moose:

We saw several moose with antlers this time on our scouting trip before Rebekah's family came.





Then when they came we saw one as we were hiking on the trail.





I'll have more updates soon with new animals!
