Cowboy State Daily ^ | March 20, 2024 | Mark Heinz
Limpy the Coyote, Yellowstone's best-known animal con artist, is teaching other critters how to beg tourists for food. Wildlife observers say other coyotes have been picking up on the scam and following Limpy’s lead. Limpy the coyote, also known as Tripod, frequents the roadside in Yellowstone National Park, where he tries to score snacks by looking pathetic for tourists. (Photo Courtesy Isabella Smedley) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ As Yellowstone National Park gears up for its forthcoming peak season, one of its best-known grifters — Limpy the coyote — is at it again. And he’s starting to bring friends along. Limpy, also known as...
 

Red Spouter, Yellowstone’s Multi-Personality Thermal, Created By 1959 Earthquake

Cowboy State Daily ^ | February 25, 2024 | Andrew Rossi
Created by a 7.3-magnitude earthquake in 1959, Yellowstone's Red Spouter is a thermal with many personalities. Depending on the season, it can be a hot spring, a boiling mudpot or it can just spew hot gas. Many of Yellowstone National Park’s thermal features are defined by their personalities. The regularity of Old Faithful, the colossal noise and steam clouds of Steamboat Geyser or the colorful palette of the Artists’ Paintpots. By that logic, the Red Spouter might be Yellowstone's most ambitious. Instead of building a reputation around a single personality, it tries to — and succeeds at — being many...

Bison are responsible for more injuries than any other animal at Yellowstone, including bears and snakes ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ All visitors to Yellowstone National Park are warned to give the animals plenty of space, but sometimes that advice goes in one ear and out the other, as one tourist recently demonstrated. Ignoring official advice not to pet the fluffy cows, the man approached a particularly large bison and asked if he could stroke its fur. Excited, he then asked whether he could ride it before being startled back by the animal's bristling reaction. A video of the close call (which you can...

Montana Ranchers Have A Few Stern Words For ‘Yellowstone,’ And They Ain’t Good

Daily Caller ^ | KAY SMYTHE NEWS AND COMMENTARY WRITER October 12, 2023 9:53 AM ET FONT SIZE:
Some local Montana ranchers aren’t so happy with the “Yellowstone” show, despite it bringing millions into the state’s economy since its premiere. “The show has given our ranchers a bad name,” rancher for Nine Quarter Circle Ranch, Mark Greeno, told WhiskeyRiff in an article published Wednesday. Apparently Greeno is not alone in his beliefs, with other ranchers noting how their job really doesn’t contain as much violence as the hit show depicts. And because most of the show is filmed throughout the summer months, most tourists have no idea how cold it gets in the state throughout the rest of...

Bad Yellowstone: Park Was All-Out Petting Zoo 100 Years Ago

Yellowstone today is on high alert for “touron” behavior, but in the Roaring ’20s it was an all-out petting zoo. Attractions included the popular feeding of the bears -- a nightly dinner show that became more popular than Old Faithful. Hardly a day has gone by this summer season where a tourist in Yellowstone National Park hasn’t been caught doing something illegal, dangerous, stupid — or all three. Facebook page Yellowstone National Park: Invasion of The Idiots! has become the TMZ of the NPS (National Park Service). Public shaming hasn’t seemed to slow offenders much. Healthy fines do not appear...

Too hot to handle! A hapless visitor to Yellowstone National Park’s world-famous hot springs got a thermal surprise after dunking her hand in the spring’s steaming-hot waters. In a video that has gone viral, a man and a woman defy legal restrictions and common sense when they dismount a park boardwalk at Silex Spring on the Fountain Paint Pot Nature Trail in Wyoming. The pair then scurry down a grassy embankment and approach the 174-degree hydrothermal pool.

A train derailment was reported Saturday in Montana near Columbus. The train reportedly went off its rails and into the Yellowstone River amid a bridge collapse, according to local outlets. "I’m monitoring the train derailment in Stillwater County, and the state is standing by to support as Montana Rail Link and county officials assess their needs," Montana Gov. Greg Gianforte wrote on social media Saturday just before noon.

When it comes to celebratory beers, Coors Banquets rank right there at the top. I’m not sure if it’s the unique, old school shape of the glass bottles or what, but you just feel like a king every time you crack one open and take that first sip. On top of that, it’s no secret that the beer saw a rise in popularity when it became the beer of choice for the Dutton family on Yellowstone as well. But speaking of Yellowstone and Coors Banquets, the beer chose one of the show’s biggest stars to narrate their latest ad in...

The US Sun ^ | February 23, 2023 | Tariq Tahir
VLADIMIR Putin’s allies have bizarrely threatened to use the Satan-2 nuclear missile to attack the Yellowstone supervolcano. The attack - that could cause a radioactive eruption - was openly talked about on state-run TV and came as the Russian tyrant ordered testing of the 16,000 mph missile. Putin is said to have warned Joe Biden of the test launch of the missile - officially known as the RS-28 Sarmat - in advance, while the US president was in Ukraine. Speaking on a nightly panel discussion about the war hosted by Kremlin mouthpiece Vladimir Solovyov, one military expert talked about how...
