The red fox (Vulpes vulpes) is a shy, nocturnal omnivore, typically hunting at night, dusk and dawn. It is an efficient and lethal predator, due to its acute senses of sight, smell and hearing. Striking a perfect pose, this kit carefully surveys his surroundings before entering his den in a woodpile in southeastern Nebraska.
Aspen trees have the widest range of any tree in North America. They are very important to the forest ecosystem, as they are usually the first trees to grow after a forest fire. Known for their bright golden-yellow leaves in autumn, aspens provide valuable forage for deer and elk, while the underlying plants provide food for mice, rabbits and voles. In turn, these small animals attract bobcats, coyotes and mountain lions. Around ponds and streams, beavers usually eat aspens before any other trees.
One of the iconic views in Grand Teton National Park, the Snake River overlook is the location of one of Ansel Adams most famous images photographed over 70 years ago. It provides a spectacular view of the Snake River leading up to the Grand Teton mountains. Beautiful year around, autumn is particularly picturesque due to the many deciduous trees along the Snake River.
