People just can’t allow nature to take its course.

must have missed the day in kindergarten when the lesson was, “if it isn’t yours, leave it alone.”

Perhaps an IQ test or something similar should be administered prior to entry to any National Park.

For the sake of the animals.

Darwin Award season is open. I’ve been there. A black bear pushed it’s nose up on my drivers side window & showed off an impression array of claws. That place is not a petting zoo.

Video captured on May 20 in Wyoming shows a woman standing right next to a bison

Tourists take closeup pictures of the solitary bulls all the time. Its like a game of russian roulette.

Some of these people are foreign and simply ignorant.

When my 3 children were still kids we had 2 Japanese college exchange students (Yurio and Yumiko..if I recall) spend a week with us. I felt it was a valuable learning experience for all. Anyway my house and property at the time adjoined a State Forrest of about 300 acres…kick myself for selling that one….anyway.

They were both from Tokyo and we spent about 4 hours one day exploring that forest. They were utterly amazed. I actually have/had pictures somewhere of them feeling the trees. They literally had never been in a forest in their 20 something years. Nor had they ever seen real trees of considerable size up close. Everything wild was amazing to them, squirrels, deer in the area etc.

People these days are so REMOVED from ‘Nature’ in ANY form that they haven’t a CLUE how She works!

Maybe instead of the National Parks spending time and money to get ‘peoples of color’ (except the color, ‘white’) to visit the parks - because it’s White Supremacy or SOMETHING, they should have EVERYONE take a TEST of some sort before they’re allowed to enter.

Several yaks escaped in my area. They look mean and are large.

The rancher and the cops had a heck of a time rounding them up.

Are people getting dumber?

When I was a kid people seemed to know to leave wild animals alone.

A dozen years ago I was seeing the same in Yellowstone. On the way out of the Park back to Teton Village, traffic came to a crawl. On the opposite of the road on a small bank, a large Black Bear was rooting around in the grass. Fricking multiple people were out of their cars getting as close as possible for photos. AND A FRICKING Park Ranger instead of chastising the people for being idiots AND breaking the very specific rules of exactly what they were doing was more concerned with traffic control. UNFRIGGING believable.

I have two major hatreds. One is those who abuse animals. The other is for the self-righteous idiots who believe that killing an animal is better than letting some person save it. If there was a woke policy I would dismantle first, it’s anything to do with so-called animal and bird protectors who won’t let the information spread on how to treat and care for injured animals.

This is another reason why I avoid obnoxious tourist venues like the plague.

Big tourist venues like Yellowstone, Yosemite etc, have become little more than amusement parks for obnoxious people...Buy your tickets, make your reservations and get in line....lol..

It seems I recall some foreign tourists doing the same thing several years ago. I believe in that case the park personnel ended up having to euthanize the animal. Tourists do not realize that the mother leaves her baby alone as she goes off to graze and will return to feed and see to the kid after she has eaten her fill.

Do tourists no longer read up on the places they plan to visit and read all the warnings, instructions, and advice given?
