The northwest corner of Yellowstone Park is closed for bear manage- ment and Rachel, a bear biologist, is discovering some very startling animal behavior-grizzlies denning in June, swans at their wintering grounds in summer, what appear to be Irish Elk, an extinct species, with huge palmated antlers.
There are also horrific mutations in the young-elk calves with no front legs, earless bear cubs, and eaglets without wings.
What has gone wrong? Why is this area closed? Who's covering up.
