This is the first calf I have seen this year on the Wildlife Loop in Custer State Park. Hope it does well with the upcoming storm.

Moved the jeep to a better vantage point. These are wild animals and I take all precautions especially when a calf is present. Photo: Herb Ryan Photography

 

And along came a not so itsy bitsy log skidder that made the group of 15 to 20 Buffalo move in a hurry. Photo: Herb Ryan Photography

 

This little “Cinnamon Baby” got off the feed bag pretty quick and ran for the hills. Photo: Herb Ryan Photography

Ran across this group on the Wildlife Loop in Custer State Park about one mile from the new visitors center at 6:00pm Thursday September 8, 2016. Extremely powerful animals with much better parenting skills than some people in the world. All images shot with a Canon 7D MK2 and a Canon F2.8 – 70-200 handheld telephoto lens.
