Elk Island National Park, July 2016

This 75 sq. mile park is about 15 miles east of Edmonton, Canada. That made it about a 4 hour drive each way from where we were staying in Canmore, Canada. Our hope was to be able to see Wood Bison, a cousin to the Plain Bison that is seen in places like Yellowstone NP, or in the Dakotas. The Wood Bison is about 15% larger than the Plain Bison, with a larger and squarer hump. Fortunately, the drive was worth it and we did see two Wood Bison Bulls!
