Yellowstone Wildlife Tours

We depart before dawn for the best chances to view Yellowstone's bears and wolves, along with moose, bison, elk, bighorn sheep, pronghorn, and many other species both large and small. 

This is primarily a road-based tour, suitable for all abilities, and can scale it to be age appropriate. 

Typically, Walking Shadow Ecology Tours will be in the northern part of Yellowstone, including Lamar Valley.

We'll show you how and where to look for the continent's most sought-after wildlife, in a place that boasts all of the species that roamed North America in pre-colonial times. 

​​Observe and learn about behavior, habitat, predator-prey relationships and more, all while sighting the most Yellowstone wildlife we can find on our journey.

Learn how to read the landscape by the signs our wildlife leave behind. 

We'll discuss geology, human history, and more for a textured view of the world's first national park. Our guides love questions!

You will find an appreciation not just for the diversity and abundance of Yellowstone wildlife, but for history, management, and what the future holds. We excel at creating context for the importance of the most intact ecosystem in the temperate world. 

Our Yellowstone Wildlife Tours are the most popular with good reason. We are intimately acquainted with Yellowstone's wildlife and landscape. And we love to have fun sharing it!
