WOMAN IN TEXAS CHARGED, GORED BY BISON

We have seen similar videos over the past few years: a person tries to get close to wildlife only to be attacked and having more than their pride hurt in the process. Thanks to the Internet we get to watch it over and over and break down how stupid they were. This video is a little different in that the woman was taking video, but was trying to stay away from the bison that were on the trail. Now, I would have HIGHLY suggested she be more patient and let the animals move further away, but she didn’t do that and one charges her and makes contact. Luckily she is alive to share her story and the video she was taking when the attack happened. Another lesson for you out there that wild animals are not friendly and they can hurt you.

Solo hiking at Caprock Canyons State Park & Trailway in Texas. I was charged and gored by a bison because I was to CLOSE to be passing them on a trailway They are beautiful creatures protected by the Texas Parks & Wildlife Department (TPWD) and are a part of the Texas State Bison Restoration Project where the park has restored the historic Charles Goodnight Bison herd (The Official Texas State Bison Herd) to a portion of its former range in the park. I am posting to support safety while enjoying Texas State Parks #TPWD #bisonetiquette101 #hikingsafety #llbean #chaos #rei
