The natural world is not Disneyland. And those toddler harnesses with the leashes maybe look a little less silly.
A sad event for sure.
I used to HATE those harnesses, but they are needed so etimes.

Those harnesses are a good idea. They are useful in many different situations. A friend of mine used one whenever he took his toddler to the mall. He should have been commended for adding a layer of security for his child.
But instead he got “how dare you walk your child like a dog” stares.
Yup,Yellowstone...and Midtown Manhattan (before the lockdown...NYC is a ghost town these days).
I had one of those when my kids were little.
The reactions were mixed. Some smiled knowingly and others gave me the evil eye.
But I figured that the harness was better than those stupid wrist bands that I always saw the kids yanking on and pulling their parents arms out of their sockets. That looked danged uncomfortable.
