Sounds like we have candidates for the Darwin Awards!So have you been following the moronic antics in the Park this year? Women trying to take selfies with bull bison? One almost in tragedy. Touron (tourist moron) "saved" bison calf crossing river thus separating from mom. Calf had to be euthanized. Touron fined. Just recently, a couple tourons picked up an elk calf and drove it to West Yellowstone in their car to deliver it to Park office to save it. Now there is a guy jumping out of his car and chasing bears. OMG freaking Darwinism!! Please chase a griz sow with cub! Puleaseeeee!!! Somebody innocent minding their own business is going to be harmed or worse from inane actions by dumber than dirt tourons!
You cannot make this stupidity up but yet more ridiculous actions is reported every day. Has our society dumbed down this much?
I say fine the crap out them, take their car, heck take their phones!! I really don't know what the solution can be that is effective.
What say you?
Just remember, these people are the ones dropping votes in the ballot box for things like Colorado wolf introduction and bans on predator hunting. It honestly makes my blood boil that we allow the general joe public dummy to have a voice that supersedes biologists.So have you been following the moronic antics in the Park this year?

Too many so called biologists are that by title only! Activists by trade.
I had a renter that would mess with the ducks, and ducking. I turn him in. When I lived there I would get cracked corn and feed them. Love to see the ducks.Complex I live in has a community pool not far from one of the community fishing ponds. The locals feed the ducks, ducks don't migrate, locals go awe when they hatch out a brood. The city closed the golf course behind our community, coyotes, foxes, skunks and coons took over because it has plenty of water and the ducks the locals feed go there to hang out and get away from the locals. So this year a hen decided that the gated community pool was a safe place to raise her clutch. Locals were all awe until one of the local's heathen kid decided to harass mama and offspring, she probably scared him more than hurt him, but the idiot fell over a lounge chair and broke his arm. Local wants Daisy, Huey, Duey and Luey euthanized because they were doing their thing being wild creatures. I told Heathen local's mom that the kid was in the wrong and he should be punished for harassing wildlife, she argued with me and animal control. I planted the seed that wild game was under the jurisdiction of TPWD, I knew one of the local game wardens and texted him to expect a call. Well, her dumb butt called game warden and tried to reason with him and get the ducks euthanized, instead he wrote her a ticket for wildlife harassment and had the community pool closed down until mama decided to vacate or the youngsters could fly. The pool closure ticked off the parents that use it as a babysitter or for quiet time who in turn harassed Heathen's mama.
I was secretly going to the community pool and putting out corn and meal worms for them until they could fly or she decided to go back to the community pond. She might have stayed an extra week or two.
Was in Yellowstone in 1978 with some friends and one of them and his wife along with another friend approached a bison , But they were not close. About sixty or seventy yards. I was behind them and taking pictures with a motor drive 35 mm camera. Three picture set shows the three of them facing the bison who had his butt towards them, picture number two shows the bison swing around and lower his head. Number three shows two out of the three people turning around to run. I looked up to see what the bison going to do, wish I'd keep pressing the shutter button. Bison put on display of who was boss but didn't charge them. I yelled asking if they had all the bison fun they wanted. None of them found it funny, I thought it was hilarious.So have you been following the moronic antics in the Park this year? Women trying to take selfies with bull bison? One almost in tragedy.

I have a big telephoto lens for my camera so I can be even further away, keep me safer
Worst part is many of them did have the large lenses yet still got that close. My pictures were just on my wife's IPhone as I used a phoneskope for the farther pictures.
