We took a tour of the north loop of Yellowstone and in addition to Mammoth Hot Springs and Tower Falls we saw; a mother cinnamon black bear with a cub, a mother grizzly with two cubs, two osprey fishing in the canyon of the Yellowstone and numerous relaxing elk. The highlight of the trip was was a real close up view of a six point elk buck (it was right beside us, not afraid and not aggressive as its antlers still had velvet fur). Off tomorrow to Cody, Wyoming, and will do the southern Yellowstone loop along the way.

I saw on the news last night (Thurs. Jul 28)about a mother bear (same description as the one you mention) who was knawing on the arm of a women camper. I believe the women was from Toronto. I'm thinking you folks were well out of the area by the time of the incident. Thanks goodness. One must never forget that these are wild animals however tame they may seem. Vicki
Yes, we heard that campers were attacked and one person got killed. People are told what to do and not do, but every year as in the Grand Canyon people get hurt or killed. We are in their world and thes are wild animals.
