Stan, jokes aside, I was in Moab last weekend staying at the Archway Motel and my daughters discovered a fenced in area about 100 yards from the motel that housed a freakin Mountain Lion, Wolf, Grizzly Bear and a Bobcat.
Apparently the Hotel had rented a traveling circus act called "Animals of Montana" and wanted a photoshoot of the animals on their property that day. I about fell off my rocker when the guy said he was bringing the Bear out from the cage and would wash him down before letting the bear go for a swim in their nice swimming pool. Yep, that's right..imagine checking in the hotel and looking out the window and there's a huge Grizzly swimming in their pool! It was quite a site.
Kane, I can honestly say I've never seen images quite like these. They both make me grin!

Crazy...makes me think of the Nat Geo Wild show America The Wild. The guy that hosts it, Kacey, has been lucky enough to help raise orphaned wild animals. He is from Montana so maybe there is a connection?

6 repliesOne must keep Stan happy by hooking him up with a marshmallow about every ten minutes.
If you run out of Marshmallows chain him up because he gets grumpy. (large image attatched)
If you can keep up with Stan and his needs, he may invite you to the Sand Dunes and show you his version of "Evolution of Dance."
