At Yellowstone, a bison gored a Phoenix woman, causing injuries to her chest and abdomen. A Minnesota woman was hurt in her abdomen and foot at Theodore Roosevelt National Park.

    It’s relatively common at Yellowstone, BOTH because bison are fucking massive and because tourists are idiots who typically can’t follow simple directions like “Stay 25 yards away AT ALL TIMES. BISON ARE DANGEROUS WILD ANIMALS, YOU MONKEY”.

    In all fairness, this case may have just been bad luck, as it sounds like they did most things correctly, and just happened to unfortunately round a corner into a pair of bison. But we’ll have to wait to see for sure.
