Yellowstone tries humor to warn against dangerous critters
Another 'name that animal' test that Trump might ace?
Yellowstone National Park asks tourists to maintain a safe distance from other tourists and – as always – potentially dangerous animals.
On Friday the park unveiled a clever graphic intended to drive home its message. The chart shows a tourist standing and waving next to other tourists in a “wrong” manner, and six feet away in a “right” manner. It then shows the same figure standing next to a bear (wrong) and 100 yards from a bear (right), and next to a moose (wrong) and 25 yards from a moose (right).
The final portion of the graphic, however, is the punch line. It shows the waving figure standing next to a bison in one frame (wrong) and running from three charging bison in the next frame, beneath the heading,“Good luck,” and above the sub-heading: “Shouldn’t have been waving….”
This comes in the aftermath of a late-June incident involving a 72-year-old woman who was gored after violating park guidelines and repeatedly approaching within 10 feet of a bison. In May a woman was rammed by a bison after she violated the park’s 25-yard distance regulation.
