Tourist season in Yellowstone...OUCH!
 

An "Oh shit, oh dear!" video and story. ROFL

On a side note, that is a BISON, not a Buffalo, CNN.

Idiots.

And why would anybody want a closer look at those nasty stinking things? Anytime I go out West, it takes about five minutes to get my fill of them for the entire trip. If that.

Video shows object hitting attacking bison

Wrong! The video shows them hitting the bison with an object and then it attacks. That headline makes it like they were the victims and not the bison.

Can't really blame the bison for getting pissed and storming after them. They're lucky to be alive.

Bison, buffalo...same difference.

And then throwing something at it at that range. Morons.

Here, hold my beer and watch this...

LMAO

I like how the guys stomps over there like he's a regular with bison in the wild. He acts as though his days of wrestling in high school prepared him for anything that might go wrong.

Watch again and watch the horns on the Bison. The object in question, was already on its horns and when he raised up, he threw it on himself. That being said, the dumb **** are going to get a Darwin Award if they keep that up. Those things look slow, but they can close ground VERY quickly, a lot like a grizzly, or a moose.

Ummm......no.

You're right. The first time I saw that, I thought the guy had thrown it at him, but it wasn't caught on camera.

Good, proves that some Buffalos are still wild. I like Wild Buffalo's wings.

Yeah, I didn't catch it the first time myself. EVERY year there is a few dumb shits that think they can walk right up to these things and most get away with it. They are orney pricks and will light you up under the right conditions.

That's crazy. Who would've thunk that a fast, hoofed, large, horned, wild, untamed animal would be crazy to approach.

like your mom?

I'll tell you what Chi, I guess they (Ricky Ranger) gives you at least 10 "stay the fug away from the Bison" flyers when you enter the park these days. I guess some people can't read or think, "It could NEVER happen to me." These are the same people that think they can walk up to a grizzly and scratch his nuts.
