TOWN CRIER

Description

D90Tamron 18-270@270MM ISO400 F11 SS1/160
Taken next to the Historic Buildings in Mammoth
Hot Springs. This is the Same Bull I Posted almost on top of a Tourist. Also the One who was busy Challenging Vehicles in Town and who is the Harem
Master for the Town. Just his sight was enough to scare a younger smaller bull. When we were there I'd guess there were about 12 -14 females around Town. They ENJOY the well fertilizer, thick green Lawns the town has to offer.

Very interesting Jack! Are they dangerous? Strange to see a wild animal roaming the streets, isn't it? #9864525

Monnie Ryan December 14, 2011

They've found their own personal paradise, I guess -- if they chomp all the green stuff down, those humans just plant more! Cool capture, Jack! #9864650

I can't imagine what it must be like to have these big guys chewing on your front lawn. I'm guessing that there is a healthy respect for them by the human population or are they considered a pest? I would hope they are protected. This is a superb capture of wild meets the city and is certainly not something you would ever see in my part of the world. The only wild animal that comes to my house is a duck. #9864907
