Very cool shot showing how the animal is shedding its winter coat.
If you join a mission, you can then select that mission for each spotting you post and then it will be automatically added to the mission.
This would go well in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem group at: http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/8554044
Amazing!! I just have one question. How do you post your photo on to the mission?
