Yesterday 610 was hit by a car. The car did not stop or report it. I am out everyday in the park and see people all day speeding through and passing people. Each area of the park has wildlife that crosses the road. There are black bear zones, grizzly zones, elk crossing, moose crossings and so on. What you may think looks like open road in a national park is really the home of these animals and crossing roads is how they move through the park.
Last week at a bear jam for Blondie a tourist actually told a ranger he didn’t have time to sit in a bear jam he had to get to dinner. Why vacation in a national park with wildlife and nature if you are going to be so selfish. National parks are full of wildlife and natural beauty that are meant to enjoyed and cherished not sped through with city life agendas.
SLOW DOWN AND RESPECT SOMETHING BIGGER THAN YOURSELF.
