Elk, coyotes, bighorn sheep, black bears, and even gray wolf are indigenous to these lands in the Rocky Mountain National Park located within scenic Colorado. More than just fauna can be seen in this park with spectacular views of the Rocky Mountains. A small number of moose has been reported here as well as mule deer and lynx making for an incredibly diverse and delicate biosphere. It is a great location for viewing coyotes in their natural habitat, an opportunity that is scarcely seen across some states and prime times for catching wildlife in their prime moments are early mornings or later evenings. Visitors staying for multiple days should keep in mind that deer are creatures of habit and will be likely found in the same areas at similar times each day, making it ideal for photography and repetitive sightings.
