Wild animals



Last week I picked up group from a Princess Cruise ship in Whittier, AK. Our first stop was the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center. There are Wood Bison, Muskox, Moose, Caribou, Brown Bears, Black Bears, and Black-tail Deer at the center. Since I was driving the coach, I didn't get to take many pictures.......(the guests would have been a little unhappy if I didn't have both hands on the wheel!) When we stop, I was able to walk a few feet from my coach, and guess what I saw??!!


On Saturday, June 27th I was driving to Denali again, and had just left McKinley Princess Lodge (about 1/2 way to Denali) and this large black dog walked out onto the road. It stopped, looked at me. I was thinking, "What a funny looking dog....or is it a wolf?" Then it dawned on me, it is a black bear. It didn't have a tail, so it couldn't be a dog.....
