Few legends are more significant in the American psyche than that of the Wild West. We find that for the animals populating the Pacific coast, the West's mystic past remains a savage reality.
About The Wild West
Before cowboys and before the Gold Rush, there were the original outlaws of the West -- the truly untamed animals that call America home. Elephant seals settling their scores with blood; black and brown bears prospecting for pink gold in the form of thousands of salmon; and bobcats exploring the New World alone. Join National Geographic as we venture inside the coasts, deserts and mountains where these wild creatures roam.
