tourons

Discover the risks of getting too close to bison at Yellowstone National Park. Learn how to stay safe and respect wildlife during your visit.

In a recent video from Yellowstone, we get to see 3 youngsters making poor choices at the Grand Prismatic Hot Spring.

As a public service, let’s encourage all amateur nature photographers to practice their craft from inside their vehicles. Snapping selfies within 15ft of a sow and her 4 cubs may be an invitation to a messy photo shoot.

It’s apparent the warnings aren’t working with many park visitors.

It was a little too close for comfort.

The rise of cellphone cameras brought this about.

Are the animals stressed? You bet.

These tourons are lucky the animal didn't feel too threatened.

In this week's installment of People Risking Life and Limb for a Pic, a man was nearly gored by a bull elk in (according to the comments), the mountain town of Estes Park, Colorado, while a woman yells at the elk to 'kill 'em!'

Is Yellowstone National Park becoming more dangerous or are we, as human visitors, becoming the problem?

The picture shared on Facebook is labeled as ‘Wildlife Safety’ and shows the good and the bad ways to interact with wild animals.

The tourons have already been spotted at Yellowstone this season, so it's no surprise that the National Park Service felt the need to school the masses again.
