This National park honors Theodore Roosevelt. This was his first cabin (Maltese Cross Cabin) in the badlands of North Dakota. It wasn't up to his standards & he had a second cabin built in a different area in the bad lands. It was called the Elkhorn ranch.
A quote from Theodore Roosevelt "I never would have been President if it had not been for my experiences in North Dakota."
Prairie dogs have their own villages. 
They are very common in the park. You can hear them bark, more like a screech when you approach them.

Roosevelt came to the North Dakota badlands to bag a buffalo. When he arrived the herds of buffalo were vanishing. He fell in love with the area and conservation became one of Roosevelt's major concerns.
John got a new toy. 
Next time we see a grizzly bear we will be ready for a real close up.
Wild horses were plentiful. We enjoyed watching them. Although I don't think they liked it too much.
