EWE AND LAMB, ALASKA MOUNTAIN SHEEP, Mount
McKinley National Park. These sheep, also called Dall, are among the
handsomest animals of the Mount McKinley region. One of the problems in
park administration is the maintenance of these sheep in adequate
numbers while at the same time assuring the presence of wolves which are
a rare sight for visitors. (Photograph by Ott.)
PADDY WAGON FOR BAD BEARS. All bears are not as
innocent as the little fellow to the right. When panhandling bears
become really troublesome, they are enticed into these contraptions and
taken for a rideto be released in remote portions of the park.
