Rocky Mountain National Park
Rocky Mountain National Park Wildlife
From the majestic elk to rare boreal toads, Rocky Mountain National Park protects animals of the high south-central continental divide. Elk number about 1,000 in the park, and are easily seen. Moose are more secretive, found primarily in the Kawaneeche valley. Bighorn sheep are fond of coming to mineral licks in Horseshoe Park.
Mountain lions are fairly common, but as is also true of bobcats, secretive and rarely seen. Black bears thrive in Rocky Mountain National Park's lower forests.
