Animal Models

I have had the privilege of photographing wildlife at different game model locations and zoos.

Mostly my animals have been photographed in the wild, so I am always a little apprehensive about how a shoot with captive animals will go.

However, almost all published photos of wolves and mountain lions and other shy creatures of the wild have been photographed in places like Animals of Montana.

The result of all this is, that, although you have animals in camera range, it is still up to you to react to animals behaving naturally and to be ready to capture the definitive moments. It is definitely a challenge, but also very rewarding, because many of the photos I got could not be duplicated in the wild even with years of effort.

    WHO, ME?

The cougar, or mountain lion, has remarkably soulful eyes. When they look right at you however, they seem to be staring through you also.
    MOUNTAIN LION LOOKOUT

High vantage points are a favourite of the mountain lion. His remarkable vision will detect movement from great distances. On his lofty perch unwary prey might not even notice him till he is on their back.
    ON THE RUN

The gray wolf possesses an easy lope that can carry him tirelessly for many miles. Once locked on his prey, he will simply wear it down into submission.
