I saw this early this morning:
And then I found 'The Rest Of The Story:
A 34-year-old man was arrested in Yellowstone National Park after dressing in a bison costume and chasing tourists for two hours.
In the incident, the man wore a full bison costume and spent approximately two hours running after visitors in the park while repeatedly yelling, "NOW YOU KNOW HOW IT FEELS!", causing confusion and concern among tourists, some of whom initially believed the costume was real before noticing a "Made in China" tag on the tail. Park rangers intervened and arrested the individual for his disruptive and unsafe behavior.
This event highlights the serious risks associated with approaching or harassing wildlife in Yellowstone. Bison are large, powerful animals capable of causing severe injury, and park regulations require visitors to maintain a safe distance of at least 25 yards from bison and other wildlife.
Previous incidents in the park have involved tourists being gored or injured after getting too close to bison, emphasizing the importance of respecting wildlife boundaries.
The arrest serves as a reminder that Yellowstone National Park enforces strict rules to protect both visitors and animals, and that reckless or provocative actions, such as dressing as wildlife and chasing people, can result in legal consequences. Visitors are encouraged to observe wildlife safely, follow park guidelines, and avoid any behavior that could endanger themselves or others.
Deleted one Yukon bison comment due to the ignorance it exuded.
