I don’t disagree with you. I was simply pointing out he did not do the usual idiotic things people do when they believe Disney has the final say on wild animal behavior.
The article read that the bison came into a camping ground. Which to me would be a signal to make myself scarce. That might have given some there a false sense of safety. A belief if we just leave it alone everything will be o.k. Personally I would be trying to figure which way Nebraska was.
“The article read that the bison came into a camping ground.”
With those things, and by the determination of the park, they have the right of way on any ground they stand. And you’re right, I have no idea why anyone would want to stop and not give way to a car size creature with limited vision in rutting season.
We’ve been to Yellowstone a few times and when confronted with one or more of these we bailed into a car or bus. They are pretty intimidating. So these idiots didn’t give it enough room for its determination and had no safe escape route. Hiding in trees is not going to get it done with the bisons’ sense of smell that can pick up odors at the two mile mark and a sense of hearing that can pick up sounds at great distances even before they can see any problems.
