Custer State Park Wildlife Loop

Our drive around the Custer State Park Wildlife Loop began mid-morning, so we probably missed a lot of the animal activity. However, we were NOT disappointed! Wild burros lined the road, pleading gently for handouts......."No pressure intended, but might you have an apple to spare?"
Babies of all species were abundant......
The cycle of life continues, thanks in part to the human efforts to preserve open spaces for wildlife habitat.

The animals seemed grateful for the return of a plentiful food supply and warmer weather...... It's been a LONG, TOUGH winter!
