North America's fastest land animal, the pronghorn (Antilocapra americana), is a gorgeous species to behold. They are ideally suited to their grassland home, and watching them run across the prairie is like watching a shadow float across the plains. This is a species that I've been fascinated by ever since I was a child, and it was a dream of mine to have a chance to photograph them up close. I had some amazing encounters with pronghorn while in Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Park, and I hope to see them again in the future!
