Guam is tipping.....
“...If people encounter bears and wolves they should stay 100 yards away.”
Just 100 yards?!!! Grizzly bears can run up to 35 mph, and black bears are even a little faster.
Funny. I always thought that was ‘picanic’ basket.
Well, Gov bean counter beat me to the punch with a similar thought process up in 22.
If only she spoke Bison.
The bison warned her several times that, “Al Gore!!!”
I think Ruth is 172.
More like nat geo tv now days Disney has not had wildlife shows in 30 yrs
She should be required to pay the medical expenses herself.
Stupidity should cost people.
Having lived in Alaska I can tell you many tourists think they are in an animated Disney theme park.
a) huge, b) horned, c) not terribly bright — that also describes moose, except I would add d) ornery. They can attack without any provocation and are really dangerous.
They wander through our property in Idaho a few times a year. Fun to look at.
“So getting close and personal with one is not advisable.”
But the one thing in your list that the bison is is not too bright. Trying to walk up, multiple times, on a battering ram at 8 feet tall and more than a ton in weight, and a bad attitude when they are bothered by anything, isn’t real bright either.

Good choice
When you enter Yellowstone through the rangers entry points, you are handed a pamphlet describing what actions are inappropriate. Signs are everywhere of a bison goring a human into the air. Yet many times when I go, people have to leave the safety of their SUVs and wander out where bison are grazing. If you tell them to get back in the vehicles with their children they get angry. I give up.
Pretty sure it looked something like this...
“Remember Grizzly Man?
He ended up Grizzly Breakfast?”
Both he and his girlfriend were the catch of the day.
I never got to see it but, My buddy said it was all messed up. BRAND NEW cattle trailer and all it took was two buffalo to do it.
Said those two critters went completely nuts once they got them in there.
Ha!
“In retrospect, I should have let her. It would have been cheaper...”
Now, now. LOL!
