TBT: Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center

From 2012:

My friend Sandi S. takes frequent trips to out-of-the-way places here in Alaska, where that's really saying something, and comes back with awesome photographs.

However, this time she went somewhere close by - the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center, only 40 miles from Anchorage, and got some great shots. Here are a few she passed along this morning:

Moosey!

Hey - who YOU looking at?

I wonder what's up here?
Is that lunch I smell?

 The Center is a fenced-in road which meanders through the wide-open places in which the animals go about living. Only the spectators are behind wires. :)

But that allows them to get within a few yards of the critters, and allows for some spectacular chances at good photos.
