Roadside Animal Sightings

Yesterday I saw 1 deer, 2 caribou, and 3 bears (not together, otherwise all might not have left the party).

The day before was even more spectacular, I (happily) passed 15 bears. It was interesting to see their different personalities. Some dashed away as soon as I approached. Others seemed unfazed, not noticing the cars and motorcycles wizzing by. Which leaves the two who looked up, made eye contact, then licked their lips. Being low on gas, I was a little worried about these guys.

Otherwise I've seen a enough animals to fill an educational placemat including but not limited to a bald eagle, turkeys, buffalo, foxes, elk, a mole (while walking), and several large rodents / small mamals I didn't recognize.

Badger (?) Caribou Looks like natural selection is working
