Wallowing Bison

Wallowing Bison
We saw several bison bulls wallowing when we were in Yellowstone National Park. This bull is standing after rolling in the dust several times (see insets) and some of the dust is blowing away. There are different explanations for this practice, including protection from biting insects, showing prowess during the rut season, etc. These photos were taken where a herd of bison were crossing the Firehole River at Fountain Flats.
