Wildlife encounters on the trails we wandered - uncommon, common and funny

Описание: A compilation of clips of close encounters with common and uncommon wildlife during our backpacking trips and hikes in the areas and regions listed below.

Unfortunately, a good number of the clips are phone footage of mediocre image quality, this is due to the circumstances during which the encounter took place as often there was no time or condition for the setup and use of the camera which would have provided a much better image quality. Regardless, we feel this footage is worth sharing and enjoying as wildlife is always beautiful to watch and admire.

Wildlife encounters: marmot, moose, marten, squirrel, deer, clark's nutcracker, bear, ground squirrel, grouse, viscacha, lizard, Andean condor and California condor, bighorn sheep, cara cara, chipmunk, duck, tarantula, frog, pika, wild birds, butterflies, fishes, bees, muskrat, coleoptera.
