They do have signs. Many foreign visitors don’t believe the buffalo are wild and approach to get a closeup photo.

Doesn’t excuse the American from making this serious mistake.

my neighbor had a ‘pet bison’, and one day he dropped one of the grain bags through the fence by mistake- he reached in for it and got immediately gored in the gut- he survived it for awhile, but infection eventually set in and he died-

“I avoid tourist venues like the plague.”

Me too, and it is getting more and more difficult.

One of the greatest destructive forces to our country is the interstate highway system. It has metastasized in the last 20+ years - taking over many state and local routes to allow easy, significantly larger volumes of traffic, migrations, movement of criminals and tearing down of landscape to put in strip malls and huge warehouse hubs, more roadside trash, etc etc. And it makes it really easier to relocate illegal aliens and for the obnoxious tourists to get around too ...

Disneyfication.

The belief that all animals think and act like Disney characters and will instantly recognize that you mean them no harm.

10 ft just far enough for that 1500 lb bison to get a little steam and leverage going.

I was watching some show with four dead ghosts, one was a hippie chick.
She died after taking acid and decided to give a bear hug to a actual bear....
Pretty believable..
