Summary

[edit]
Description

While moose are not regular residents of Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve, two moose were observed by the park biologist this year within park boundaries. Moose were reintroduced to the San Juan Mountains across the valley in past decades, and their expanding populations occasionally cause them to roam into the park and preserve. The Medano Creek and Sand Creek drainages may contain enough riparian willow habitat to support a small permanent population of moose in the future. Photo taken in the San Juan Mountains.
