Bison Walks Away After Tourist Taunts Animal at Yellowstone National Park

A tourist at Yellowstone National Park thought it would be a good idea to taunt a bison. The man escaped serious injury only because it was the bison who made the decision to walk away. Lindsey Jones shot video of the encounter and spoke to Inside Edition. “I was definitely worried for him!” she said. "I was truly nervous that he was going to throw him in the air several feet. I was really scared for the guy, I thought it could've ended really bad." Bison can be aggressive when defending their turf. #InsideEdition

When an animal is more mature than you so it decides to walk away instead of fighting.

The animal should be put down. The bison on the other hand is commendable for being mature about the situation.

And it's sad to think if the Bison had reasonably done something it would've been shot and killed.

Smh. If the uploader “couldn’t watch” close your eyes, keep your hand steady and record for the rest of us

[dejajones]

Leave the damn animal alone like dang he was minding his own business 🤦🏾‍♀️

I'm actually amazed how the bigger animal walked away from stupidity.

Why record if you're going to turn away at the best part?

That Bison is one class act...

Bison was like: "sending this guy to the top of Old Faithful isn't worth my own life."

Would have LOVED to see him get airborne at least 15'

Stupid Man is not worth the majestic beast's time or effort.
