These are pictures of a grizzly bear and it's yearling (a one year old cub) and a caribou with a radio collar. I'm not even sure how the caribou holds those antlers up. Caribou is the only one in the deer family in which both the female and the male both grow antlers. These pictures were taken from the bus while we were traveling through Denali Park. There is only one road through the park most of which is unpaved and is 92 miles in length. No private cars are allowed past the first fifteen miles. After that you need to be on what looks like a school bus repainted either green or tan. The top picture shows us stopped at one of only three allowed rest stops washing our windows. We traveled about 50 miles into the park with everyone on the bus spotting for wildlife. Most of the wildlife spotted was too far away for my basic digital camera but these three critters were kind enough to be relatively close to the bus. The scenery along the way is absolutely fabulous.
