  • A raven flies past the Old Faithful geyser as it erupts in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming. When Old Faithful erupts, it can launch as much as 8,400 gallons (32,000 liters) of boiling water as high as 185 feet (56 meters), although the average eruption height is 145 feet (44 meters). The time between eruptions is growing longer on average, possibly because earthquakes have affected underground water levels. The current interval is either 65 or 91 minutes depending on attributes of the prior eruption.

  • A bald eagle and a red fox tussle in midair over a European rabbit in San Juan Island National Historical Park in Washington state. The fight began when the bald eagle attempted to steal the rabbit away from the young fox, known as a kit. When the bald eagle grabbed the rabbit, it inadvertently also caught the fox, lifting both more than 20 feet into the air. The fox swung back and forth trying to take the rabbit back. The bald eagle released the fox and flew off with the rabbit. The whole struggle lasted 8 seconds. Both European rabbits (Oryctolagus cunuculus) and red foxes (Vulpes vulpes) were introduced to San Juan Island. The rabbits were introduced to the island in the 1890s by settlers; foxes were introduced occasionally in the 1900s. The European rabbits in particular are considered an invasive species, turning the prairie into an unsustainable barren landscape with their vast burrows. This displaces small native mammals, such as the Townsend's vole. While bald eagles and foxes occasionally hunt rabbits, it is a relatively rare occurrence. Up to 97 percent of an eagle's diet consists of fish and birds; red foxes more commonly eat berries, insects and small mammals, like the vole.

  • A few stars are visible in the sky as Old Faithful erupts at dawn in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming. When Old Faithful erupts, it can launch as much as 8,400 gallons (32,000 liters) of boiling water as high as 185 feet (56 meters), although the average eruption height is 145 feet (44 meters). The time between eruptions is growing longer on average, possibly because earthquakes have affected underground water levels. The current interval is either 65 or 91 minutes depending on attributes of the prior eruption.
