Tourons never learn.

Read the story. It wasn't his fault. mtmuley

I did. This time of year those things aren't predictable. Spent 2 years around those things...didnt like being closer than a few hundred yards from them. This time of year, even farther away.

Apparently he wasn't far enough away for a tourist toss.

Thanks Buzz. Guess those that were there are full of shit. Have a nice evening. mtmuley

Wrong place with the wrong bull.
Bad luck.
Its the people taking selfies at close range that I dont have any sympathy for. Hope the guy heals up.

Probably the same bison that was in bridge bay last summer chasing a guy down when I was there. Sad to see.

If he was far enough away, why did he get tossed?

Buzz, read the news report. It wasn't this guys fault. Go cut some firewood or shut the #*^@#* up. mtmuley

You mean the one quoting the combat vet that is the "expert" bison biologist?

Yeah, read that.

Being only 100 yards away from a bull bison this time of year is a roll of the dice. I think this guy crapped out, as it were.

Like I said, worked for 2 years around those things on Turners...stayed wayyy farther away from them than that guy was. Didn't trust them at all.

They need you down there. Keep folks safe no matter what. Not Buzz Lightyear, already taken. Let me think a bit. And maybe you could get a badge. Big shiny one. mtmuley

I dont like being only 100 yards from grizzlies either...

Was pretty impressive watching cow bison bend coral poles made with 6 inch well casing.

Left an impression, literally and figuratively.

My take on the incident is that bull came into the campground after folks were there. This wasn't a touron situation. Sounds like he will be fine. mtmuley

Go look at the corrals yourself on the snowcrest...wtf would I know?

No way the fences are 6 inch well casing. None. Fact. mtmuley
