Fall in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem is a wonderful time. We witness animals utilizing the fruits of their summer-long labor to ensure their genes make it to the next generation. The cool, crisp morning air carries with it the bugles of rutting elk and the musty aroma of animals in rut all through the park. We also see bears whose summer toiling to prepare for winter is not quite over as they search out any and every bit of calories they can.
