"Referred to as the “Serengeti of North America,” this ecosystem was brought back to life when, after 70 years without them, eight grey wolves were reintroduced in 1995—restoring a proper balance of predator and prey and bringing beavers, birds, bears, mice, and plant life back into the mix. While it sits dormant in winter, spring and summertime draw travelers to observe nature in the raw; a multi-day safari trek through the wild is described as the best way to experience it, with May among the best times, when grizzlies and wolves are often active and visible, birds make their migratory pilgrimage out west, and there’s an influx of baby animals frolicking around." - Jenn Rice
