This was a wonderful and well documented short video WMI. Thank you to all those who participated including the stars of the show...the wild animals. The elk seemed to let us in on a little taste of Benny Hill at the end there.
I really loved this! Thank you for posting. I was raised in Wyoming and living on a ranch most of my life it warmed my heart. One can leave Wyoming but you can never totally leave because WY always keeps a big piece of you heart, beconing you home.
To answer Woodtick's question, up to 10,000 elk and other critters come out of Yellowstone Park to the Elk Refuge in Jackson Hole. They drop their antlers there and the local Boy Scout troop pick them up and they are auctioned off every year. People come from around the globe to buy them. Part of the proceeds go to the scouts but the main portion goes to buy feed and support the refuge. Its a worthwhile trip in late fall/winter to see them. I lived there in 1989/90. I assume that still happens.
I.ve been there nothing like it went horse back up in the mountains for 1 week so much wild life so scary going and coming back on the paths of the mountain I remember looking out at Jackson Hole town was so small when we was on the mountain path on horses I was 12yrs old I.m 64yrs now. Our guide name was Mr.Wolf super nice guy.
@@mizzury54 yes he was pretty cool fill blood indian. The only thing I didn.t like was the path for horses was very narrow and we was high up on them paths going into the cannon that why Jackson Hole the town look so small we was like 7 miles away and I don.t know how high up we was but trust me way up there
This really brings back memories, it reminds me of the hunting magazine I was subscribed to which had a poetry contest about elk, I wasn't aware I loved elk so much, I wrote them the most depressing poem about the crime of hunting elk for sport I think they all got so depressed and hung their rifles, retired from hunting or commit suicide, I never heard from them again, never received another issue, hell, I still don't even know if I won that poetry contest or not!
Frankly speaking, hunting is a sick, prehistoric, sadistic sport...anyone who enjoys killing life is OFF. Rather than bully innocent beings with man-made weapons, they should demonstrate their manliness by being a kind, sensitive being to all! Hunters are the biggest cowards of all and not men. Fortunately, they are dying out in our country with the new generation which is in tune with animal rights.
Normi Sant Dude if we didn’t hunt as a species we wouldn’t be were we are now. Where does your food come from?? Living things both animals and plants grow up a little this is life
This is all fine camera work and a good positive video. I would like to know since when did the large Canadian Grey wolves come into this part of the country? I use to go hunting up there years ago when they had vast herds of all different species of deer. You could count some of the herds in the hundreds at a time and the Moose population was also great. I would like to know why the large game animals have virtually disappeared in some sections of that huge area of Wyoming and Montana and Idaho. Do you think that the introduction of an invasive non-indigenous species of top predator as far as numbers of animals killed by them has anything to do with the disappearance of the large game animals. I know that some of the herds that use to migrate to certain areas every year have changed their migration routes and winter feeding areas because of the pressure and devouring of large numbers of deer species by this wolf that was brought into the U.S. illegally and in doing so has decimated the game in such a vast area. From what I was told the population of these big wolves has skyrocketed in just the past 10-15 years and now it costs and arm and a leg to even go hunt in Wyoming because most of the larger herds left have migrated to privately owned lands and the land owners are clipping people with a fee of sometimes at least $2,000 per hunter. This seems like it was a design in order to cut out most hunters and for the big money people to just screw the ordinary hunter and sell off the public assets of game animals by default. And this kind of thing is happening all over different states using slightly different tactics. If you want to hunt now you better be able to buy your way into a private hunting lease or you won't be able to hunt.
Restoration of wolves to Yellowstone helps to balance the system, weed out the weak of the herds. There are according to reports about 100 wolves counted in Yellowstone it use to be about 600. Wolves are part of the ecosystem as are mountain lions and grizzlies. Colorado has foolishly been killing off mountain lions to improve the deer hunting experience. At the same time, the herds are over populated and diseased. So what is your point? Another trophy on your wall?
@@samconagher8495 Absolutely not. I don't mount trophies. I am a real hunter and a conversation minded individual. I know that introducing a population of wolves actually not only improves the quality of the deer population but it can go as far as to improve a whole region as far as the other indigenous populations of native species. Not only the animals but it also improves the entire ecosystem of said region. An overpopulation of deer can decimate the plant life and affect even the water quality. My guess is that the lack of native wolf species was unavailable and I just hope that the Grey Canadian wolves do not create any more problems that the native species. And as far as Colorado goes I think killing off the cats is a very big mistake. I just wish that we in the U.S. could get back to where and how we use to be able to hunt in the 50s & 60s. And most of the intrusive gun laws should be reversed to the same way it was back then too. Bringt back the old ways of our fathers and grandfathers. I think there would be less crime too.
you are brain dead, in the late 1970s wolves migrated from Alberta Canada naturally and were denning in Glacier National Park, natural migration is not invasive, the lower 48 is not an island and wild animals know no borders
Soon there won’t be any Elk left, at one time there was estimated 20,000 Elk there. After the introduction of wolves it was down to a couple thousand. The moose are all but gone already. Very sad to see.
@@rubenroyer9488 Yes there's an abundance of beauty out there I watch a lot of western movies an although some are filmed in other countries there are some filmed in the states an alot of the scenery makes my curiosity want to go an check them out ! I have a ATV an would like to ride some trail out west !

Nice work! Thanks for putting this compilation together for all of us trail cameras geeks!
It’s great to see videos of the beautiful state of Wyoming. How I miss the beauty of Yellowstone.
I was lucky to see a large herd of elk cross the road on my way to Bear Tooth......amazing, and I was thrilled.
I love hearing the bugle calls of elk when I'm hiking in Nature.❤✌👣
I have never had the privilege to hear a elk, a buffalo, a wolf,or coyote!
That was very enjoyable to watch! Thanks for sharing your work! 👍
Great series of videos. Thanks for the information and great viewing.
Fantastic, that they still can make it down an intact migration corridor, amazing, thankyou

I wish more people felt the way you do about your home state. Through the good and the bad be proud of where you live and love your neighbors..
WOW...that was amazing and a blessing to watch.

I'd love to do that. Was there an outfitter company involved ?

Great job everyone! Keep up the good work!
Great stuff..
BEAUTIFUL, thank you.
Amazing, awesome video.
Nice video
Jackson Hole Wyoming the national elk refugee , awesome place to take a sleigh ride through the elk herds.
747 800 did that a few years back while skiing. It’s a awesome experience. Hoping to back in the summer to trout fishing.

you are really lucky you have unique nature
No sign of the Big Hairy Fella with the Big Foot ?
That was cool
This video is like when long ago,news media would cover good things,not all bad
Thanks ...
I had started following the Wyoming initiative on net and FB. Not getting enough info

your logic is absurd white boy, go rant to your sister everyone ignores you rightfully so

@NebulaRanger there in Yellowstone so can’t hunt there. Only a uneducated fool wouldn’t know that.
Is that high in the trap house? The elks sound fake are they real?
Your thumbnail photo is a Mule deer, not an Elk !
One of my bucket list is to visit Wyoming Montana Colorado & other states !
Such unbelievable natural beauty out west.
@@rubenroyer9488 Yes there's an abundance of beauty out there I watch a lot of western movies an although some are filmed in other countries there are some filmed in the states an alot of the scenery makes my curiosity want to go an check them out !

No Bigfoot ? I love Wyoming. Haven't visited for to long. 💜
What a beautiful Buck at 1 10
I seen big buck and nice elk love elk mean i want to try buffalo
Interesting
Yellowstone elk and you show a mule deer ....funny!
Any bigfoot on cam
What I wanna know is where the elk shed their antlers !! Lol 😆
March & april wintering grounds
A lot of them at the refuge outside of Jackson Hole.
In town. Jackson hole. At the park. 😁
Wood tick .... isn’t the answer “ anywhere they want “ ?
I wonder if these trail cams accidentally capture humans relieving themselves .
Would love to hang a stand there and bow hunt that trail!!
cougars know how to evade camera
Coniferous Forests ..... yes they do. They learn that in cougar level high school. Around the sophomore year.
( Just kidding )
