Thanks Chris, I'll try to see if I find something and the post the link :-) great again!
Beautiful shot!
What an American icon! Beautiful animals!! Super capture!! :)
From what I know, they have a thick mantle on the front to keep warm in winter. I would also believe, although I am not positive, that it probably helps to make them look bigger to a predator and is not on the hind quarter so that they don't have extra weight and can run without a problem.
I am not very informed about this animals..why do they have mantle only on front part?
Thanks for the kind words everyone! First pic is my favorite also! They are all over Yellowstone.
Nice series!
Wow wonderful! And the landscape is very nice, first pic is my favorite
