This is the sign at the north entrance to Yellowstone National Park. The entrance is near the town of Gardiner, Montana, but one quickly crosses into Wyoming along the five-mile road from the entrance to the main park road.

These cow elk were photographed near Gardiner, Montana and were being guarded by a large bull who had periodically to chase away several younger bulls who were trying to steal his cows.

This is a bull elk chasing some younger bulls that had dried to separate some of his cows from his herd. He was photographed near Gardiner, Montana.

After driving into Yellowstone National Park and finding no campsites available we left the park by the north entrance and spent the night near Gardiner, Montana. On our way back into the park the next morning we saw a herd of elk in a field along the road and stopped for photos. This was the bull of the herd and while we were watching some young bulls who were hanging around tried to cut some of his cows (see inset) out of his herd. He is eyeing them here and soon began to chase them away (see inset) and to bring back the cows who had strayed.
