There is a large, dead, Black Angus Steer lying in the middle of the Yellowstone River a short way down river from the Grey Owl fish access, a couple miles north of Emigrant. You can see it from the highway It looks like a large rock in the river, many of which are exposed by the low water this time of year.

It apparently got into the river from one of the ranches along the river near there and couldn't get out. It was still alive when one of my friends floated by him last week, and although my friend dialed 911, hoping someone could rescure him, no one came to help. I've been wondering whether a bear might smell the carcus and swim out to feed on it, but so far apparently not.
