Wolf & Bear Safari
By Spring Creek Ranch on May 24, 2011
Last week’s wolf and bear safari was an extremely successful weekend of wildlife watching throughout Grand Teton and Yellowstone National Parks. We were able to find many grizzly bears, black bears and a solitary gray wolf. Although these predators were the focus of this excursion, we also had great sightings of bighorn sheep, moose,...

Wolves and Bears of Yellowstone

Our primary objective on these safaris is to see predators and we were able to watch several species of predators on each of these including gray wolves, grizzly bears, eagles, coyotes, weasels and black bears. During one evening, we... Read More.

Bison Puppies
By Spring Creek Ranch on May 23, 2010
It is definitely more correct to refer to young bison as calves, but they give such an impression of little, red dogs that they are sometimes referred to as puppies. Newborn bison have been a highlight of safaris lately along with excellent sightings of many other birds and mammals. Our recent Wolf and Bear... Read More.

Winter is coming to Jackson Hole
By Spring Creek Ranch on October 12, 2009
Weather here in October is reliably unpredictable, but we still managed to find amazing wildlife during this past weekend’s multi-day safari. We spent over an hour watching this sow black bear and her two cubs enthusiastically forage for berries. The falling snow added a nice backdrop to all of the wildlife and the wintery... Read More.

May Flowers
By Spring Creek Ranch on June 3, 2009
During our safaris, we strive to meet the specific interests of our participants. Today, we had a strong interest in both birds and wildflowers. Thanks to an abundance of winter snow this year, we are currently enjoying wonderful spring wildflowers such as balsamroot, spring beauty, arnica, yellow violet, larkspur, yellowbell and Oregon grape. Bird... Read More.

Once again, our wolf and bear safari was a successful excursion with extraordinary wildlife sightings.
