Kid Runs For His Life When Bison Charges His Family At Yellowstone National Park

bison charges family at Yellowstone national park

It is really non-stop, isn’t it? Time after time, just incredibly stupid bison encounters from visitors to Yellowstone National Park. It’s really surprisingly how few people actually get hurt in these wild videos, however when they do, it’s never good.

So once again for the people in the back, these are not fluffy cows, they’re not friendly, and they will run you over without a second thought.

The video starts with an entire family walking directly towards a bison that is standing next to a boardwalk. Although there are many stupid people way too close, this family is the king of them all as they decide to walk straight up to this bison. They get within a few feet of it and all start taking cellphone pictures.

The man video taping this wild event from afar sums up what we are all thinking perfectly.

“See him gesturing? See his head movements?  Saying ‘I will get you, I will get you.'”

The bison continues to give them fair warning it is not happy. The crowd start to realize and disperse. However, four people stay put and quickly learn what the bison was communicating. One man starts to run away a bit from the increasing angry animal and everything starts to run including the bison.

Most of their family makes it to higher ground. The bison stays on the tail of one of the smallest people there who is hung out to dry by mom and dad. Luckily, the boy is able to use the bushes to help get away as he gets chased in a circle with everyone shouting for him to run.

He makes it away safe and everyone in the area realizes they need to take a good 10-steps back. And perhaps the craziest part? The man who seems to be his father is laughing the whole time… ain’t nothing funny about that one, dad. Other than how stupid you are.

The kid got lucky… real lucky.

Brown Bears Battle Over Whale Carcass Off Coast Of Alaska

I just got back from the lovely state of Montana, and while I didn’t run into any bears while I was there (probably a good thing), you get a first hand account of the vast, incredible, and humbling beauty this country has to offer.

And while Montana is amazing it gets no more vast, incredible and humbling than Alaska.

In this incredible footage at the Katmai Coast of Southern Alaska, we get to watch as two coastal brown bears engage in a vicious fight over a beached whale carcass.

A whale carcass beached on the Alaskan coast prompted several dramatic fights between scavenging bears over the newfound bounty.

The scene was caught on camera at the Katmai coast in southern Alaska, in August 2015, as a massive male attacked a smaller female with a cub at the carcass, briefly gaining the upper hand until a different male attacks, saving the female.

And we have a front row seat.
