Congratulations to all our Online Peoples Choice Award winners! Watch all of this year's film submissions at link in our bio. 🥇Stay Wild Delaney Coveno is a Big Sky based wildlife photographer. She is originally from the east coast, and fell in love with wildlife photography on her first visit to Yellowstone National Park. One of the reasons she loves Big Sky is that it is so wild, and that we share our home with bears, moose, and mountain goats. This video is a tribute to all our furry neighbors in Big Sky, and a hope that we will always make room for wild creatures in our town.
