Hi I’m a 19-year-old mammalwatcher currently living in Nevada but originally from South Africa. I love all mammals but I’m particularly keen on bats, cats, and cetaceans. My biggest goal is to see at least 1000 mammals. I also hope to save more birders from themselves by showing them the light: mammalwatching!

    The wolves do seem pretty far away. is it allowed to simply walk closer to them or do they run away?

      The wolf watchers there said they prevent people from walking closer to ensure the animals aren’t disturbed. The view from the scope is a lot better than the picture’s let on as you can still get a pretty good look at them. You’d probably have to find wolves elsewhere in the park if you want to get proper photos though. 🙂
