This image of Grizzly 399 was taken when her quadruplets were still cubs-of-the-year. Grand Teton National Park’s most famous grizzly bear, known by her research number 399, has raised litter after litter along the Oxbow Bend of the Snake River. She is a true marvel of nature.

I thought I'd share an image from my trip to Italy last month. While out cruising through the country side of northern Italy, we came upon this small vineyard near the town of Castel Rocchero. I thought it was deserving of a stop and few pictures. Happy Friday!

This young bull moose was a recent backyard visitor. As you can see we really haven't gotten any snow in Jackson Hole, but there is finally some in the forecast. Happy first Friday of 2024!

It’s a great time to visit The Art Museum of Eastern Idaho in Idaho Falls, ID. The “Thomas D. Mangelsen A LIFE IN THE WILD” exhibition opens today! Now through March 30th, 2024 To learn more and purchase tickets visit: mangelsen.com/exhib… or Theartmuseum.org

It finally looks like winter in the Tetons, as we've had a series of storms in the last week, like most of the country. This was the last clear sunrise on Saturday before the storms started. Now there's more than another foot of snow on the ground. Happy Friday!

Finding wildlife subjects during winter isn't always an easy thing to do, though the most reliable are usually the bighorn sheep that spend the winter on the National Elk Refuge. This impressive ram was following closely behind some ewes with the rut in full swing. Happy Friday!

This time last year, I was just getting settled in for a two week safari. Although this winter has been pretty mild, the pull of East Africa always grows stronger in the depths of a Wyoming winter. Happy Friday! (Striped Hyena at sunrise in Samburu.)

I’ve always believed photographs can sometimes command more power than words, but sometimes we all need to speak up and give the wildlife we value a voice. Mangelsen.com/stop-killing-p…

As I'm sure you all know by now, the northern lights two weeks ago were ones for the ages. The only other times I have seen equally impressive displays was in the Arctic, so being able to watch the show from my backyard was incredible. Have a great Memorial Day weekend!

Things are starting to really green-up in the Tetons, as summer weather seems to have arrived, at least temporarily. Just after sunset last Saturday I was fortunate enough to watch Grizzly 399 and Spirit as they gorged on fresh clumps of clover. Happy Friday!

Some good news to start the new year! Grizzly bears won't be hunted for the foreseeable future. Get the full scoop from my friend, Todd Wilkinson. yellowstonian.org/grizzlies-rema…
