Bison Rams Straight Into Parked SUV at National Park…and It’s All on Video

People who venture to our nation’s national parks do so at their own risk. The Blaze reports on a man who learned the hard way that our national parks are filled with wild animals that can do serious property damage if provoked.

Tom Carter sat parked in his SUV at Yellowstone National Park’s Lamar Valley and watched as an angry bison barreled toward him.

“Don’t run into our car,” he said in the video he took of the incident.

But the bison just did not listen.

“Holy crap!” a woman in the car said upon impact.

Carter wrote on YouTube that the bison were provoked by “foolish tourists” who chased them.

Carter wrote that the Nissan Xterra owned by Suzie Hollingsworth sustained about $2,787 worth of damage.

“That’s more than a dollar per pound of the 2,000 pound bison!” he said.

The lesson to be learned here: “Never harass wild animals. Once aroused, give them time and space to calm down. Never chase wild animals!”

It seems like an easy lesson, but provoking wild animals will only yield results like this.
