[00:00:18]Look at these bison with their raised tails.

[00:00:20]They getting defensive? Yeah, that's that's they're getting defensive.

[00:00:33]Yeah, that's what I was saying.

[00:00:36]You see the road going down? So, there's the two there on the right circling. And behind that there's a little hump that's in the in the sunlight.

[00:00:43]Above it, behind that is where all the bison are.

[00:00:47]You got one of your lens caps on.

[00:00:55]You got wall-eyed vision.

[00:00:56]Hold on, let's see.

[00:00:58]Try this again. Is that up above the cliff above the campsite? It looks [snorts] just like the rock to me here.

[00:01:05]No, it's it's very close to the creek [snorts] down by the campground.

[00:01:11]13304, you need to walk out on the very end of the boardwalk to see all of this here.

[00:01:20]Oh yeah, he is carrying something. The umbilical cord and afterbirth still dragging on the ground.

[00:01:27]And over to the right of that single tree, he's down low. Yeah, look at that.

[00:01:31]He's carrying something.

[00:01:33]>> [snorts] >> It's carrying something on its arm.

[00:01:34]Oh, he's carrying something? Yeah, to the right.

[00:01:38]I was about to say a smackdown.

[00:01:50]Here we go.

[00:01:52]They doing fine.

[00:01:56]Where's he going?

[00:01:58]He's looking back.

[00:02:11]I feel like we should be able to see that coyote.

[00:02:20]Oh, there's the coyote.

[00:02:23]The wolf just passed in front of the coyote.

[00:02:30]Oh, here we go.

[00:02:54]Yeah.

[00:03:20]Did you guys see it?

[00:04:31]>> If you hear a coyote alarm barking then there's something around that's it's concerned about.

[00:04:39]Oh, there's a bison with a baby.

[00:04:42]There's a baby coyote. Oh, right down here?

[00:04:45]Is that Dolly? That's Dolly. I think so.

[00:04:48]I think that is. That is Dolly.

[00:04:52]Oh, yeah, 100% it is.

[00:04:57]Girl, you've got to get rid of that.

[00:05:02]No wonder the wolf stood up.

[00:05:04]Oh, I see the wolf.

[00:05:06]Coming down? Yep, I see it. No. Bro, I'm afraid. The wolf sees another black on the end that it disappeared behind the knoll.

[00:05:14]It's coming back down to the river.

[00:05:15]There's one like right there.

[00:05:17]I think.

[00:05:19]There may be two over there. There's this one and then there's the one on the right.

[00:05:23]Yeah, there's another one over there on the right.

[00:05:25]Bro, they're clocking Dolly. Yep. Are they going to try to cross the river? I hope so.

[00:05:30]Dolly. Dolly is too young to cross that river.

[00:05:33]There's three over there.

[00:05:35]That one's quick trotting.

[00:05:38]Off the hill. Yeah, here they come.

[00:05:41]They're coming quick, too.

[00:05:43]There's another black that's still staying back.

[00:05:50]Go, Dolly. Oh, man. Dolly, please. You got to go, sister. Oh, they're crossing.

[00:05:55]That's fine.

[00:05:55]Yeah.

[00:05:57]Oh, no. Where are the other buffalo? So, when when bison cross rivers, usually mom will be a bit upstream, so she creates a wake. Blocks the wake.

[00:06:05]Yeah. They're crossing. The wolves are running now.

[00:06:11]Go, Dolly. Go, Dolly.

[00:06:13]If Dolly gets washed downstream and separated from her mom, then then she'll be over.

[00:06:23]No, she's going back.

[00:06:27]Oh, no.

[00:06:28]Oh, no, Dolly. No, I don't think that's good.

[00:06:34]Oh, Dolly's swimming back to the shore.

[00:06:41]I mean, that was really like the shortest distance to cross it, too.

[00:06:45]Yeah.

[00:06:46]She was trying.

[00:06:50]She's probably going. Damn, Dolly. I don't know what to think anymore.

[00:06:53]Pull it together. Yeah, Dolly.

[00:06:55]Where are Can the one mom buffalo take on the two wolves?

[00:07:00]Um I with there's Well, there's at least there's three wolves out there now.

[00:07:05]And uh The lead one Well, not the lead one, but the one in the middle is the one with the collar.

[00:07:09]>> And it's starting to crouch and move towards them. It's definitely They're definitely going for it. Let's move to the right in case they go behind or the left.

[00:07:35]Oh, mom, go for it.

[00:07:43]>> Oh.

[00:07:53]And so on.

[00:07:56]This poor mom has been through so much.

[00:07:58]Mom was about to headbutt these. Good out of that one.

[00:08:02]Oh, brother.

[00:08:14]About to lose a mom in the tree.

[00:08:19]They're going to keep going right. Yeah, go right.

[00:08:23]Down by these things. That tree right along the creek there.

[00:08:27]Warren.

[00:08:35]Mhm. Yes.

[00:08:44]Nothing else we used to talk about. We used to do it for something.

[00:08:54]Oh my.

[00:09:03]Yeah.

[00:09:12]Just like the Colorado River.

[00:09:15]Yeah, I saw Oh, don't get to. I'm just saying Look at the other two just kind of circling. Yeah.

[00:09:27]They gave up on the pilot, though.

[00:09:29]Yeah.

[00:09:30]It's a little baby.

[00:09:32]This could go on for hours, too. That's why I think the lady over there is going to get over there.

[00:09:40]It's just born.

[00:09:43]This one is still hanging on.

[00:09:44]>> Yeah.

[00:09:47]It'll be easiest calf to bring down.

[00:09:50]If they have to do it, try to get the calf to chase.

[00:09:55]I was worried when they were in the water that he was going to get swept away downstream and separated. Yeah.

[00:10:01]She changed her mind while crossing, didn't she? Yeah.

[00:10:07]Where's the herd up there?

[00:10:10]Say what? The herd, the rest of the herd.

[00:10:12]Crossing?

[00:10:14]Up here in the boulders and you see the calf there. She's kind of like I look at the calf and Her first half has its priorities first, trying to nurse.

[00:10:24]First priority.

[00:10:27]That's why it's her priority.

[00:10:32]Well, that one was the first to just lay down that far. It's time to move.

[00:10:40]The mom is the most aggressive.

[00:10:42]And the wolves have just bedded down just Just waiting. right over here.

[00:10:48]Over here.

[00:10:51]This third one.

[00:10:55]I'm not even seeing that calf.

[00:11:03]She would eventually get All right. So you might want to go Patience.

[00:11:12]Um they were just saying somebody out here somebody used to say was saying that these are very dominant.

[00:11:22]I think they're all working together.

[00:11:23]Yeah, he's not surrounded.

[00:11:25]It bothers me in a way.

[00:11:29]I don't know if I can.

[00:11:33]Try to find another way.

[00:11:41]>> Right.

[00:11:42]Earlier it was a little The wolf just stomped it on its head.

[00:11:44]That'd be the end of the end of the road for the wolf.

[00:11:57]The raven's here for a snack afterwards.

[00:12:00]Something to drop, literally.

[00:12:16]Now the wolf is up to the bird.

[00:12:18]Oh, we got two wolves now.

[00:12:19]Such a teenager.

[00:12:21]Yeah, that's what they're doing.

[00:12:23]I wish I could take a picture.

[00:12:26]>> [snorts] >> Yeah.

[00:13:00]He's a little worried of the birds.

[00:13:11]Not one-on-one.

[00:13:29]Mhm.
