Spring Creek Ranch Wildlife Refuge
By Spring Creek Ranch on January 26, 2010
After several days of snow, the wildlife of Jackson Hole were on the move this morning.

Usually the mule deer bucks stay hidden,... Read More.

Bull Moose in Grand Teton National Park
By Spring Creek Ranch on November 13, 2009
Animals are on the move in Jackson Hole as some species migrate away and others make smaller migrations within the valley. Many of our moose have moved away from rivers and ponds to browse on shrubs within open sagebrush habitat. This makes them easier to find this time of year and this bull foraged... Read More.

Grizzly Bear, Moose, Muskrat & Swans
By Spring Creek Ranch on November 1, 2009
We had hoped to make it to Yellowstone National Park yesterday, but icy roads kept us away. It turned out that plan B was full of opportunities including a close sighting of a grizzly bear, several sightings of moose and wonderful wildlife watching along the Snake River. These trumpeter swans noisily flew back and... Read More.

During our day, we watched Old Faithful, Beehive, Lion, Great Fountain and Clepsydra erupt. Our wildlife sightings have also been consistently strong... Read More.

Bighorn Sheep Winter in Jackson
By Spring Creek Ranch on March 25, 2009
Our local bighorn sheep herd came very close during this morning’s safari and I (mistakenly) thought that this was going to be the highlight of today’s excursion. We ended up seeing some fascinating coyote behavior throughout the morning including a pack of coyotes chase a mule deer at full sprint. We didn’t see the... Read More.
