Caribou from Denali

Posted on August 2, 2014 by ozarksphotos

One variety of wildlife which seems to be plentiful in Denali are the caribou. We were fortunate to be able to see a few of the older bulls and many females during our bus ride. The tide to Eielson and back took about 8 hours. Although the scenery can be very pretty on a nice day when it is raining the wildlife is the most enjoyable part of the ride.

One of the large caribou bulls we got to see.

A small herd of caribou on one of the mountainsides.

Another very large bull caribou. As you can see his antlers are quite large. It appears he is stripping breakfast from a small tree.
Evidently he is one the rangers are tracking as he is wearing a GPS locator around his neck.
