Day 8--Even More Yellowstone

Our Black Bear!

Today was a wildlife adventure! Everyone was in the car at 6:00 this morning, eager to find some animals. We didn’t have to wait too long before we spotted some elk by the side of the road. Then we came upon a moose, which apparently is a rare thing here. Later we saw a coyote walking out of the fog, down the middle of the road, right next to our car. After about 3 hours, we were pleasantly surprised by a black bear. He was just digging in fallen trees for some bugs by the side of the road. We were able to sit in the car and watch him for a while. We also saw some pronghorn and of course lots and lots of bison. We drove about 200 miles inside of Yellowstone to see all of the animals. We also stopped at “Yellowstone’s Grand Canyon” and took a little hike to the edge of one of the waterfalls. It was a fun day!
