Cheap Sleep Motel Discover Glacier National Park... It covers over 1,500 square miles of wilderness filled with breathtaking scenery and wildlife. The park's lands are inhabited by abundant wildlife with over 60 species of mammals and 200 species of birds. Almost anywhere in the park, you can encounter deer, elk, moose, bear, bighorn sheep and mountain goats. And if you're lucky, you might even hear the howl of a gray wolf at night, although you'll probably never see one. If you're in the mood for something exotic and four-legged, you can view mountain goats on the southern edge of the Park. About ten miles Southeast of Essex on Highway 2, natural salt licks have attracted as many as 70 goats at a time. The observation area is adjacent to the highway.
