Yellowstone NP, Wyoming. In the fall black bears (and grizzlies) seek out the bristlecone pines found at highest elevations to eat the sugary cones, buffing up for winter. Sadly, the white pine blister rust that has devastated the white pines in the lower elevations has now spread to this species. In the area I photographed in it appeared that at least 50% of the bristlecones were dead.
