EVERYONE who enters the park is handed one of these, now in BRIGHT YELLOW for those with strong STUPID tendencies.

I have been to Yellowstone twice. Each time, they handed me one of these when I have entered the park.

It doesn’t matter, signs or no signs, a lawsuit by the “host” family is soon to come.

A good friend of mine was in the wrong place at the wrong time outside of Salt Lake City and an “assault buffalo” took him on. He was lucky. Only got a few broken bones and a collapsed lung with numerous cuts and some serious bruises. He was alone at the time and managed to make it back to the parking area where folks called the ambulance for him. I believe he had his episode chronicled in Field and Stream or one of those type mags. Lucky that the buffalo didn’t do the old head down grind him in to the ground thing that they’ve been known to do.

I think sometimes our Asian friends just don’t have a full appreciation for the danger of wild animals. I saw a Japanese tourist once try to pet a coyote in Yosemite NP. The animal was preoccupied with eating a squirrel so that gave me time to pull the guy back.

I think they get all their wild animal knowledge from cartoons.

Well, there’s the problem. That warning will now have to be printed in Chinese.

I have been to Yellowstone twice as well. The first time was in 1953 and there were no Buffaloes, at least none that you could see. The next time was in about 2000’ the park was over run with them.

Enough already declare a hunting season on them.

They can sprint 80 mph, three times faster than you can run??? That’s even faster than Bob Hayes.
