Lean Back, Dear
I still have the current Jasper wildfire on my mind as I look back on our visit last summer. Consequently, this image was captured in the parking lot of the Maligne Canyon area and highlights one of the features of the park, which is being able to see wildlife without a fence in the way. I could almost hear the male passenger of this RV telling the driver to lean back, dear, so he could get the shot! They were actually a bit too close and it wasn't long before a park official came along and shouted a warning to move on. Apparently, there are more people injured by elk every year than other animals.
As a side note, images of surviving wildlife such as elk, are emerging, which is great news.
