It's so easy to take for granted when you grow up in Wyoming around it, but some of our most iconic wildlife has been captured in pictures by the National Park Service.
I love teachable moments especially when they come from the person doing something incredibly stupid. That's the situation here when a guy got WAY too close to a Yellowstone bison then instructed others not to.
Wyoming's wildlife is pretty much the only reason for traffic jams in and around our beautiful state, but when they happen, how drivers react makes all the difference.
If there were a singular example of how traveling through Yellowstone is not done, it would be this. It's new video showing a motorcyclist who more or less forced his way through a bison herd.
A couple was recently filmed appearing to be running from a large bison herd. What comes to question though, is why were they actually running "with" the massive animals?
This video is the perfect reminder of the sheer power of the bison. It's also a good reminder of why the National Park Service advises you to stay at least 25 yards from the massive animals.
We see people that visit Yellowstone and the Tetons do photography wrong so often, it's easy to forget how epic it can be when it's done right. One photographer recently visited our national parks in Wyoming and showed the proper way to take pictures of the wildlife we treasure.
