Did Specimen Creek Trail last summer with my son ... camped at WE4 and was taking pics of Meldrum Mt through a scope. Now I'm imagining that you were up there at the time. We took 3 days ... looped past Crescent and High lake, and came out at Fawn PassTH. Great trip.

Those are the cages that were used to reintroduce the wolves back into Yellowstone in 1995. I thought I also saw a comment from you where you asked what was the black bear looking up at. That bear ran her cub up the tree when she saw me. But I didn't stay around long enough to try to get a video of the cub. Thank you for your comments.

yes you are right and it is dangerous to approach a carcass. But I have done it a few times not seeing a grizzly around just to find out they were watching me from the trees. Here is one of those videos: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ZsB2rJx7tJPYYWw.html

What I hate is that it seems every Phd student seems to have to do their research project in Yellowstone and they never clean up their messes. They always set up in remote parts of the park and access their projects by horseback and then don’t clean it up when they are done. I run into that stuff all the time. Why doesn’t the park administration follow up on those things and make sure no trace or anything is left behind.

39:10 The Jurassic wolf encloser b4 they where released into Yellowstone🐺1:01:20 if you think is it possible to make a raptor dinosaur again - Yes But not from the Fake dna 150ml years ago untrue they said that because unsure when making the Movie , But the guy found that triggers within embryos will make teeth scales and claws etc like a raptor in a chicken embryo took him 2years trying this Now they say using an Aussie EMU would be the best bird to try making a raptor /..\ be cool to see Ina ZOO caged electric fences xd uno how it went in the Jurassic park Movie lots dead people .
