- Bison charges child in Yellowstone
A bison charged a child in Yellowstone National Park on July 28, but no injuries occurred. The incident occurred when a child approached the grazing animal, prompting the bison to chase them briefly. Park rules require visitors to maintain a 25-yard distance from bison, with stricter 100-yard guidelines for predators like bears. This follows a recent bison-related injury to a grandfather in the park.
