Wildlife Overview Details

Yellowstone National Park is famous for the abundance of large animals found in its limits. One of the most enjoyable activities is watching these animals, but visitors should be aware that it is illegal to willfully remain near or approach wildlife, including birds, within any distance that disturbs them. Chances of viewing wild animals depend greatly on location, species, season, and weather; however, it is very possible to see different animals throughout the day.
