The National Park Service has said countless times “don’t mess with wildlife,” yet some people are still learning the hard way.
An Idaho man is recovering from injuries and facing multiple charges after allegedly kicking a bison at Yellowstone National Park.
The bison obviously defended itself and wounded the guy.
Charges against Clarence Yoder include approaching and disturbing wildlife, as well as disorderly conduct and an alcohol-related charge.
The driver of the vehicle that Yoder rode in was charged with driving under the influence and disturbing wildlife.
Park officials said in a news release on Monday that the incident happened on April 21st and they both pled not guilty the following day.
The news release also reminded park visitors not to approach wildlife. Again.
