sorry, i meant which one?  i’ve been to the one on i-94, but haven’t been to the north arm.

[Daniel Krueger]

Ohhhhh. We went to both the North and South Loops. This was from the 2nd day – North Loop. 😁👌

[beth]

sweet.  which section was better?

i saw some wild horses standing by a cliff in the south arm, i don’t remember if i saw any bison.  allergies there were insane with all of the grass.

[Daniel Krueger]

Lots of bison on both loops. Horses only in the south loop. We got to see the horses too. Just off the road. I found out they are not “wild mustangs” but regular horses (mainly quarter horses/quarter mix) set out “to become feral” by the Park Service a long time ago.

there’s some wild mustangs around cody, wy if you ever make your way over there.  they can be hard to find.

i didn’t know the horses were only in the south arm of trnp.

Ugh, bureaucracy. 😡

amazing portrait, jajaja “fluffy cow”

[beth]

@federicoalgria google do not pet the fluffy cows.  it’s a whole public safety campaign to remind tourons to keep their distance.

Honestly, I am not sure that I would actually need an official reminder to not pat a 3 ton meat rocket with horns.

That’s a very good photo Daniel I also like the way you have edited it 🙂
