By Mac Mirabile, WWF I recently returned from an unforgettable wolf photo safari trip in Yellowstone National Park.

Seeing a wolf in the wild is one of those lump-in-your-throat moments that you never forget. One of my first such experiences was in the Lamar Valley during a trip to Yellowstone National Park. One particular wolf I watched during that tour still stands out in my mind.
