grizzlies in yellowstone

[Beth]

881 (the one posing with the kill) and 791 (in the river).

i've seen hunters take this exact same pose and expression with a buck they've killed...just saying.

What an awesome privilege to be able to photograph those 2 grizzlies! And you made me laugh with your comment on #2.

You know these grizzlies by their tag numbers? Nice shots of them.

a buddy of mine just went hunting in maine and got a black bear. he took the exact same photo, same expression and everything.

only when the ranger is standing nearby and has to answer the same question of "which bear is that?" over and over and over again. thanks.

Great shots, hard to find grizzlies in the lower 48 these days.

Did he just make a kill?

 

[Kyle Jones]

Very cool!

They are awesome animals. Superb photos. Were you in a boat?

 

[Jameel Hyder]

Nicely done.

You are magnificent at these wildlife shots. These are both great shots, but the second one is a shot of a lifetime. At what range did you take these from?

 

[Douglas Sherman]

Great captures, Pepper.

These are great moments. Love your comment on @#2!
Here's a link to a grizzly/bull elk kill some of you might find interesting (but sobering)

if the park rumors are true the elk was killed by the black bear in the river a week before.

Very cool!

thanks.

i was across the yellowstone river. appx. 100 ft away. i've added a map at the bottom of this post. i was on the shoulder of grand loop rd and they were across the river.

Nicely done.

thanks.
