Day 3 Vacation-West Yellowstone Wolf and Grizzly Center

We stayed the night in a neat little log cabin hotel in West Yellowstone called the Yellowstone Inn. I would definitely stay there again!  

The next morning, we explored the Wolf and Grizzly Center. It was a rehabilitation center for wolves and grizzlies who either couldn't survive in the wild due to illness or injury or who were causing humans issues (getting into campgrounds, etc). 


Some wolves on patrol. 


This grizzly was 980 pounds! He has to be outside by himself because if they let the other bears out with him, he might hurt them unintentionally. The other bears came out later in the day. He's the only bear we saw the whole trip. He was humongous. 


There was a little ground squirrel display. 


3 bald eagles who could no longer survive in the wild. 



My little wolf howling at the moon apparently.
