While you’re likely to spot black bears, moose, and other wildlife in Glacier National Park, the best place to guarantee animal sightings is in the National Bison Range in Moiese, Montana. Since 1905, this 18,500-acre reserve has been a sanctuary to hundreds of bison, elk, bighorn sheep, whitetail deer, pronghorn antelope, and different species of birds. You can take a self-guided or group tour through the reserve and see the wildlife up close (at one point my car was surrounded by a whole herd of bison). Drive slowly and bring binoculars.

The National Bison Range is home to a wide array of wildlife, from Bison and Antelope to rattlesnakes. In early mornings or late evening, you will have the best chance of seeing these animals. The loop through the park will take you about an hour.

One of a kind, quite literally, with Bison hiding on western ranges on the top of a mountain that provides spectacular views of one of the most beautiful glacial terrains in the world, bordered elegantly by the Mission Mountains.
