The calf was not accepted back by the herd and had to be euthanized. âIn this case, park rangers tried repeatedly to reunite the newborn bison calf with the herd. These efforts failed. The bison calf was later euthanized because it was abandoned and causing a dangerous situation by continually approaching people and cars along the roadway.â http://basinreboot.com/181800312795824128
It appears that the incident was reported by visitors from Idaho, while the perpetrators were âfrom another countryâ. Does Florida qualify?

Oh, youâre right. Thatâs what I get for skimming.
How much did we pay Spain for Florida? Think itâs too late to return it?

Eh, they could just smuggle home an orca to get rid of their costly penguin. They would need to enlarge the âpoolâ quite a bit and buy more fish but at least they wouldnât be so cold.

Everybody knows that bison only survived due to the kindness of tourists with warm cars for tens of thousands of years.

The more mountainous of our states tend to have real SUV-type cars (skis, snowboards, etc.) to rent.
Iâm not sure what your proposing, and Iâm tempted to think youâre trolling. Iâm not sure using the âtake shoes off for flyingâ is an effective argument, considering that there has never been a successful shoe bomber and there have been two successful bra bombers. But, Iâll entertain you anyway⌠what kind of car tax do you propose that will stop this? What other regulations do you think we should add to eliminate the two âbuild a better idiotâ examples Iâve given â photographing too close & people capturing small animals in their backpacks. Youâve failed to address concerns about how people can still enjoy the park after-hours, nor provided a concrete plan.
We do. Itâs called an entrance fee?

Think what you like. Iâm not going to detail a bullet point plan to prevent idiots from enjoying the park, that was never my point. I didnât mean tax, I meant restrictions. Other national parks are far less generous than yellowstone with driving privileges, for numerous reasons, not just wildlife idiocy. I think thatâs partly why, when a truly stupid tourist moment comes on the news, itâs usually yellowstone that hosts said idiocy.
The shoe bomb idea was a bad analogy, I was trying to reference all the extreme measures we take to prevent political violence on airplanes, while ignoring gun violence in achools. None of which has much to do with idiots in yellowstone, my bad.

This is the Australian version. Iâve been to that glacier. You have to walk past about six warning signs, then traverse a couple of kilometers of bare rock, then walk under an overhanging wall of ice to die that way. It takes determination and extreme stupidity.

Do not provoke the ice cliff with your karate or your Saturday-Night-Fever dance moves.
[This is actually the approach to the Franz Josef glacier, not the Fox, but near enough]
