National & State Parks
It is the peak summer season at Glacier National Park and that means an increased chance of people encountering black bears, grizzly bears and other wildlife both on park trails and roads. Rangers ask visitors to be extra cautious while in the park. Glacier is home to many large mammals including elk, moose, deer, bears, wolves, mountain lions, lynx, wolverines, bighorn sheep and mountain goats, to name a few. Drivers need to always be alert in the park as vehicle encounters with wildlife can be fatal or cause serious injury to both the animal and people.
