Sheep occasionally crack or split their horns while digging for roots or foraging for lichens or moss during winter. This Dall sheep in Central Alaska caught a twig in one horn and carried it like a trophy.
Ubiquitous throughout the Rocky Mountains, this mule deer was photographed in late evening just as the sun was on the horizon.
Taking a break from salmon fishing, these two brown bears played together at the McNeil River Bear Sanctuary on the Alaskan Peninsula. Male “brownies” can weigh up to 1,200 pounds, mainly because of their protein-rich salmon diet during July and August. Although normally solitary by nature, they tolerate each other during the salmon runs due to the abundance of food.
