#4 The mother (Bison) must not have been around when these fools did this or their vehicle (and they) would look less than pristine.

Driving very slowly on a Wind Cave area road amongst a small herd, our car came between a mother and her calf. The mom bellowed and charged the car (until she heard her calf's call from the other side of the road).

Thought we were toast for a bit. They move VERY quickly.

#7 And then there's the guy who thinks it would be really cool to take a picture of his five-year old sitting on a bison.

#8 I doubt they were Canadians. Canadians shouldn't be so stupid about wild animals surviving in the cold. I'm guessing European.

#9 Dunno. City folk can be....amazing...at times.

"They sincerely thought they were doing a service and helping that calf by trying to save it from the cold."

At which point I would have suggested they drive into the herd to find its mommy.

#10  I would have suggested they drive into the herd to find its mommy.

For anyone tempted to try this, I suggest getting a bison vaccine shot so you will have herd immunity.

#11 I think I've herd it all now.

#12 UPDATE: The calf had to later be euthanized because it was no longer welcome in the herd and would approach people on the highway.

#13 We poor little bison-Americans,
Deprived of our culture's inheritance:
They kidnap and warm us --
Injustice enormous!
Sheer simian privilege and arrogance.
