Summary
A new Yellowstone video showed two adults walking dangerously close to a resting bison, despite the animal remaining wild and unpredictable.
The footage adds to a recent run of bison incidents highlighted in the report, including one man being flung 8 feet into the air and a woman being dragged.
Bison can weigh up to a ton and move surprisingly fast, making close encounters especially risky even when the animals appear calm.
The episode underscores a recurring problem in national parks: visitors treating wildlife as harmless attractions rather than keeping a safe distance.
