For me there are a few things that makes the West come alive from books that I have read and movies that I have seen and the Buffalo is such a symbol of the West. This amazing photo was brought to my attention by the blog Wyofile and it was taken by Yathin on Flickr. If you get the chance take a look at the other photos taken in Yellowstone like this Big Horn Sheep.
Yathin thanks for sharing these beautiful photos that bring these amazing animals to life. I especially liked the wolf and otter photos too. But this shot of the Buffalo calf above is really special. It gives me visions of a life not so long ago on the Western Plains.
