Karen Richardson of Victor, Idaho was visiting the scenic park last week when she saw a man and his son roll up to a ranger station with a baby bison in the back of their SUV.
"They were demanding to speak with a ranger," Richardson told EastIdahoNews.com. "They were seriously worried that the calf was freezing and dying."

I hope it left a squishy reminder in the car.
And they’d still be voting (D) after mama bison crushes them like grapes.
I personally think they were truly concerned and the fact that they wanted to speak with a ranger, didn’t just take the baby-bison home, demonstrates their good intensions.
They didn’t want to leave the baby bison to freeze and starve to death.
These are furriners.
Sorry, typo: intentions.
I can see a new “ State Farm” commercial being written as I type
They sound like kind-hearted but ignorant folks.
We’ve had cows give birth to calves in negative degree temps and withing hours no issues at all and staying close to mommy.
City people don’t understand that cows and bison are a hell of a lot more cold resistant than some silly human.
The second most dangerous large animal in North America is the bison. Only bears cause more damage and deaths

Surprised mama bison didn’t teach them a lesson about messing with her baby.
Really? What do you suppose baby bison do when there are no people around to keep them warm?
Native Americans used “buffalo” bison hides to keep them warm in the winter. hmmm

Some live, some die. The ones born in the summer live, the ones born in the winter are more likely to die.

I raise beef cattle in Florida and my cattle can be seen from a major highway. I had some city slickers from up north drive up to my house in a pouring rainstorm, demanding that I put my cattle under cover to protect them from the rain. Animal abuse they claimed.
I'm not sure if they got the message but I delivered my response forcefully by telling them to get off my property and slamming the door in their face.
The gene pool is still full of defects. They walk among us.
Well mother nature does a pretty good job. Bison do well in pretty severe temperatures, they have a different kind of hair coat that works well for it.
Nice find!
Thanks
