Sanders County Wildlife Collection

Sanders County has wildlife in abundance! There are so many photos available from area residence, that I wasn't even sure where to begin...so this is a general post of some of the favorites.
Whitetail buck off Blue Slide Road by Graves Creek. We also have Mule Deer in the region.
 Trout? Got them, plus pike, salmon, etc...
 Bison Range Wildlife Refuge near Dixon, Montana. (Photos by James Rexhouse & Linda Elliott)
 Historic photo of Bison in Sanders County by the Sanders County Historical Society.
 
 Elk? Yep, got those too! (Linda Elliott photo)
 Canadian Geese - there's so many we think of them as Montana Geese
 More Whitetail Deer - all year round.

Large herds of Big Horn Sheep reside between Thompson Falls & Plains
Sanders County must be the big horn sheep capital of the world. 
We also have black and brown bear, mountain goats, moose, a huge variety of birds....check back for posts with photos of them in future Wildlife Collections.
