You can tell it is spring when the mother moose come to Riley Creek and have their calfs. We have two mothers these are pictures of just one. Our new co workers got their first really good look at her as you can see, she was close enough to look in their trailer window. The wildlife in Denali is the whole bases to the park and everyone enjoys them so much. Well not everyone. As you all might have seen (or might not) on TV we had a grizzle bear killed a few days ago. Yes our oh so smart Congress passed a law that you can carry guns in the National Park now, not discharge it just carry it. Well we had a backpacker decided he could so he would. A bear came out of the brush and he shot it 9 times. There has not been a bear killed in Denali that anyone can remember but this guy has changed all that. I always thought backpackers knew how to enjoy nature and knew how to avoid a conflict with wild life. Must be not all backpackers love nature, and for God sake this is a Wildlife Preserve!!!!!!!!!!!!!
