@@Mrbfgray bison typically don’t charge people at Yellowstone. So it is a little unusual, but I agree.. nature is u predictable and people shouldn’t be surprised that a wild animal got territorial.
If the wildlife can't roam free in our parks, without people having to encroach on them, in the very few places they have left, then we need to close the parks during their mating season at least ! Protecting the animals should be more of a priority. We have no business even being around those animals.
Having been around bison my entire life, I can tell you that this sort of thing does not happen if you are exercising proper caution. People who are truly hunters and outdoors types, who live in areas where you can encounter a wolf, a bear, a buffalo, or a big cat, know how to avoid this type of situation. It takes years of experience. Do not blame your ignorance for the animals behavior.
I take it you haven’t been to Yellowstone. The bison come right up to roads and main trails. It’s very easy to suddenly be upon with without realizing it.
@@oldageisdumbop’s point is literally made by the behavior of the animals at Yellowstone. How? Bc normal bison have to really be annoyed to charge you. The ones at Yellowstone are SOO USED to people you REALLY have to go out of your way to piss them odd to ge them to do this. Thus…it’s even harder to get fired in Yellowstone bc they are used to being right up on you. This lady was not being careful and was not 60 yrs away. She had to be trying to pet it to have this happen.
@@aerynstormcrow No, I would disagree about his point being made. His point was that these people were negligent and ignorant and I’m saying if you are familiar with Yellowstone you would understand how easy it is to find yourself in a dangerous situation while doing nothing wrong. People are DYING to blame these people and sometimes you have to accept that crap happens and doesn’t mean they are at fault. You have NO CLUE if they were 60 yards away or not and you sure as heck don’t know if she “was trying to pet it” which is just an asinine comment. These are wild animals and they are unpredictable.
I’ve been to Yellowstone multiple times and the story isn’t adding up. 60 yards is a long ways for a bison to feel threatened and charge. Without a video its hard to believe…
He obviously has a lawyer telling him not to say the word “close” and “walk towards” because of the investigation. Why would anything happen if they kept walking away from a bison that’s 60 yards away?
@@user-zp7jp1vk2i I thought he was saying there was one 25-30 yards away and then another one was 60 yards away rolling in dirt and it was that one that must have charged?
They came too close to a 2nd bison. 60 yards is still very close. After he says this. He mentions the attack. You're correct. The bison never stalked these folks.
You ever seen how fast a wild bison can move. They can move 60 yards in the blink of an eye when they want to. People see a huge animal and dont think they can move fast but they do. They will cover 60 yards very quick
Sorry she put herself in harm’s way and hope she recovers. The bison isn’t the only bull in this story and it’s a shame there is no one to tell the truth about how close they got before the incident. Let’s hope he has more respect for wildlife than he has for the American flag.
The poor animals always get blamed. If the humans would stay away from them all would be fine. Wild animals are not lap dogs, they are predators who are scared of humans and perceive them as a threat. Prayers for her that she heals quickly and has learned a lesson. 🙏🏻✝️

You can do everything right and still get attacked, this isn't a petting zoo these are wild animals who generally follow behavior patters but not always.

You can’t shut it down. That park also serves as a preservation area. Believe me, the bison can take care of themselves. When you go to a place like that, you accept liability, knowing you’re in a beautiful but inherently dangerous place. It’s my understanding these people weren’t actually bothering the bison, or trying to get close. It is rutting season & male bison can get pretty ornery. It sounds like wrong place at the wrong time.

“We’re doing what we’ve been told to do to be safe”?? I’ve never heard that getting within 60 yards of a bison is considered a safety measure! I hope the woman recovers 100%.
My hunch is that had they been doing “what they were TOLD to do” this would not have happened. She would not have been in harms way in the first place. I have been to Yellowstone and there are no areas where people are supposed to be standing in open fields with bison, period. Visitors should either be in their vehicles or on designated trails. But the silver lining here is that this couple realized they have found true love.
Well, if Amber was in any way messing with the bison, she did in fact deserves it. Even if she wasn’t disturbing the bison, they both were too close and should not have been that close and also should have planned an escape route early on …a nearby vehicle, bldg, tree, anything. If you’re in a field with no protection, it’s your fault.
Once he opened his mouth he wasn't telling the truth. Bison only charge you at close range , so what really happened dude? . Unfortunately your wife paid the consequences of her actions please save your crocodile tears.

Yes and if any leftover money you can donate it to the friggin idiot humans for psychiatric help. It’s become like running with the bulls…we gonna see if We Can Pet One…Don’t want to see any whining or crying after it’s all said and done. Leave Them Alone
So here's the thing...my family raised bison, not because they are cute...we raised them to eat. Twice a day, every day for over 10 years I fed and looked over them...not ONCE did we have a nice one... They will tear anything and everything up. I have some doubts about what he said happened ...Granted anything can happen...but, IMO and experience working with bison, they were a hell of a lot closer than they claimed. The one that hurt her was 60 yards away and was rolling in the dirt. That is more than enough time to get away.. ffs the bison head butted her...now why in the hell would a person stand there and have a bull bison charge you....60 YARDS away...I know why, they were way closer than he claims...they can run pretty fast but wallowing in the dirt, 60 yards away, she stands there waiting to be headbutted...if that bison ran that 60 yards and hit her in the head with his, she would of died...the inertia built up by that bull running would of scramble her brains....I've seen it happen to our cattle when one of our bison bulls took the fence down and got in with our cows and bulls. They were close too close....
My friend ran a bison ranch, and the bison hated him…they wrecked his pickups and he would get me to come feed the bison while he sat in the tractor cab, two round bails in the front and three on the back, I’d be riding the pto. And he’d dropped them on this hill, I’d unroll them and get back on, they never bothered me. All he had to do was get out of the cab and the bison would get upset and chase him back into the cab lol lol lol The bison are not dumb, they are just slow and take their time…and they will trample a fool…these are wild animals, stay away from them.
WTF? Why? Do you know your impact on society? Millions of living creatures have died because of you. The building of your home alone killed countless creatures. YOU RAGING HYPOCRITE
I think many people truly don’t realize just how wild Yellowstone National Park is. There’s danger pretty much all around you. Just bc it’s called, “a park,” doesn’t mean it idyllic & safe. There’s a lot of things in the park that can kill you, from wild animals, to the terrain, & the elements. I’ve been there 3x (also hiked in the Grand Tetons (grizzlies, moose, cougars, wolves, etc). When I’m out in “the wild,” I think of it like driving a motorcycle. You have to be looking around constantly, & be overly cautious. I’m sorry that happened to that woman. I’m glad she survived.
It’s not an accident, she approached the bison on purpose. How many times do you have to be told?!! I’m a Montana gal and I like to see the animal win once in awhile. So stay the hell away or respect the rules. Go fund me?….. ridiculous.
They blame it on the animal and not the people antagonizing the bison. Just like running with the bulls, over in Spain??)(if this a true event) Move over people because they will hurt you. Not a petting zoo to say the least. So sometimes (a lot) that people are idiots and animals are the best
Bison that was 60 yards away was charging at her and she just stood there? I doubt that. She must have been 8-10 ft away from Bison. Anyways, I hope she gets well soon .Wishing her luck.
@@michelletrimmer7431 , I know they can run but still 60 yards is a long enough for someone to react unless they thought bison just is like golden retriever puppy.
We were slowly driving through Yellowstone and there was a herd of Bison at the edge of the road. All of a sudden on my left side there was a couple on a motorcycle and they stayed there keeping my truck between them and the bison. Smart people!
I have been right up to a Bison by accident to the point we could have touched it. We did not see it until was came over the hill. But we simply walked back. I feel sometimes you take photos and your attention span is shortened. You don’t realize just how quick these animals are and how easily it is to get surprised by them. It is part of dangers when getting close to wild life. Bison have every reason to fear people.
When I hear of a tragedy like this, I’m reminded how at a buffalo reserve I just visited in Montana, where, despite signs all over to stay in your car, car after car had people getting out and taking pictures, and toddlers were hanging out windows. The Yellowstone people tried to do the right thing, and were still attacked, but I’m amazed how many people think they’re perfectly safe. I’m told those huge beasts can run 35 mph…how fast can YOU RUN?!?
You’re probably the only person who believes that man was telling the truth. Anyone who lives near bison can tell you that doesn’t happen if they were really doing what the guy said they were doing.
They did everything right. Thank God she survived. Of all the videos I have seen, of drunken tourists harassing the wildlife, it's so sad, that two people who were being completely respectful of the wildlife, were attacked. I wish nothing but healing, for both of them.
Yesterday's "story" was he was running away and looked over his shoulder to see his fiance' getting gored. Today it's "I told her not to run and we were backing away slowly."
They call them "wild animals" for a reason. When you enter a natural environment, you have to be aware of these critters and you are assuming the risk of such encounters. Unlike a lot of animal encounters in national parks, at least these people knew the danger and tried to avoid it but the risk cannot be fully mitigated in such situations.
Actually, the "Indians" aka Native Americans killed millions of bison, often just for the tongue and hump, leaving the remains to rot in the sun. They would run them over cliffs to their deaths.
@@michellegoodrich7115liar! You would say anything to use as evidence that your people tamed the "savages"(that's the term you really wanted to use)! The natives respected nature to the point that they felt obligated to use every part of every bison killed. Yes, they ate the tongue; but, they used the skin and every other part too. Colonial liar!!
If I've learned anything from The Behavior Panel, it's that his extended eye closure when talking about what happened (at 1:06) reveals that he's lying about what happened. He lies throughout 0:21, 0:50, 1:20, 1:26, 1:38, 1:44, 1:48, 1:53, 1:56. This guy's eye blocking is crazy, barely kept his eyes open.
So nice to read all this comments from conscious people recognizing how much more important should be to protect animals than our own greed and curiosity.
Ill translate for the guy "she got too close and when I was screaming at her to move her a** she was too slow and the bison got her and flipped her in the air!" Thats really what happened. Stop blaming bison for doing bison stuff.
I was at Yellowstone last year and you wouldnt believe these idiots. A man with a baby in a stroller less than 10 feet away from a bison with a small wooden fence separating them. But god forbid my nephews ride their bikes on a trail that wasnt even marked a no bike zone. Honesty, the park rangers there kind of suck. They seem more concerned with arbitrary rules that allow them to collect fine money than protecting the animals and keeping them safe.
Wake up this is not the season to be a tourist in the wild. When birds, animals are mating, the sun is blaring and the energy is intense who wants the smell and sight of humans in the mix. Humans are so arrogant and disrespectful to the wild species. It is a miracle she is not dead!! This month I was walking in an area that although there are some wild animals around the place I was walking is a shopping village. Out of nowhere, never heard a sound very early in the morning, and suddenly I was hit on the side of my head so hard by a crow I thought it was a piece of furniture had fallen from the apartment above. Had me in bed for 2 days. Respect the wild particularly during nesting season and the deep heat. Peace to the World.
I'd really like to hear the bison's version of what REALLY happened.
Exactly
But glad everyone ok

At the same time, I hope this woman recovers well__that was a pretty rough go. 😢🙏😇
“We’re doing what we’ve been told to do to be safe”?? I’ve never heard that getting within 60 yards of a bison is considered a safety measure! I hope the woman recovers 100%.
The park recommends staying 25 yards away from bison, so if they were legitimately 60 yards away, they were more than twice the recommended distance
He was revising his version of the story while retelling it...
My hunch is that had they been doing “what they were TOLD to do” this would not have happened. She would not have been in harms way in the first place. I have been to Yellowstone and there are no areas where people are supposed to be standing in open fields with bison, period. Visitors should either be in their vehicles or on designated trails.
But the silver lining here is that this couple realized they have found true love.
@@kristinsmith2012 Bison can't count.
@@ladikmkPriceless
Thank God she survived!
She was 100% trying to get a pic with the bison when it attacked
I do not believe one thing he said
Bison only charge when confronted by someone who gets too close.
She didn’t deserve this and I’m sorry it happened to her. HOWEVER… Bison’s don’t just charge people. They were messing with the Bison. 💯
Well, if Amber was in any way messing with the bison, she did in fact deserves it. Even if she wasn’t disturbing the bison, they both were too close and should not have been that close and also should have planned an escape route early on …a nearby vehicle, bldg, tree, anything. If you’re in a field with no protection, it’s your fault.
Then she did deserve it.
Right! They F- around and found out …. now try that in a small town … FAAFO
I wonder if she was wearing red? Bulls dont like that color.
Just a guess, but...its Mating Season for Bison & wrong time of the month for Amber to be there.
This is very sad. I hope she recovers fully.
She’s retarded
I hope that she has a full recovery.
Once he opened his mouth he wasn't telling the truth. Bison only charge you at close range , so what really happened dude? . Unfortunately your wife paid the consequences of her actions please save your crocodile tears.
@@dbo8336He shouldn’t even open his mouth then. If you feel you have to lie, fine, lie to your insurance. The whole nation doesn’t need to hear it or donate to help for her stupidity
Pay attention to the story. Do you think they went up to pet it? Fool.
Mating season begins in July and can run through September.
First the Bison was 60 yards away, then she’s getting gored… what happened in between?
Lolol, facts! 25 and 60 yds is far, his story isn’t adding up.
Can I start a Go Fund Me for the bison? The trauma has got to be unbearable. 😊
Yes and if any leftover money you can donate it to the friggin idiot humans for psychiatric help. It’s become like running with the bulls…we gonna see if We Can Pet One…Don’t want to see any whining or crying after it’s all said and done. Leave Them Alone
Poor bison! Needs an emotional support wolf now - everyone contribute❤🐾💲💲💲
I’m sorry she was injured, but his t-shirt speaks volumes about their mindset.
Oh shut up and get a life.
Bingo!
BS
People need to respect their space. She's lucky to be alive. Hopefully others will learn from this.
So here's the thing...my family raised bison, not because they are cute...we raised them to eat. Twice a day, every day for over 10 years I fed and looked over them...not ONCE did we have a nice one... They will tear anything and everything up. I have some doubts about what he said happened ...Granted anything can happen...but, IMO and experience working with bison, they were a hell of a lot closer than they claimed. The one that hurt her was 60 yards away and was rolling in the dirt. That is more than enough time to get away.. ffs the bison head butted her...now why in the hell would a person stand there and have a bull bison charge you....60 YARDS away...I know why, they were way closer than he claims...they can run pretty fast but wallowing in the dirt, 60 yards away, she stands there waiting to be headbutted...if that bison ran that 60 yards and hit her in the head with his, she would of died...the inertia built up by that bull running would of scramble her brains....I've seen it happen to our cattle when one of our bison bulls took the fence down and got in with our cows and bulls. They were close too close....
That are my thoughts exactly. Actually, I thought she probably wanted to take a selfie and she got way too close to the animal...
In a reputable lodging, they would of warned them of this.
You are absolutely right, and I don’t feel sorry for them.
My friend ran a bison ranch, and the bison hated him…they wrecked his pickups and he would get me to come feed the bison while he sat in the tractor cab, two round bails in the front and three on the back, I’d be riding the pto. And he’d dropped them on this hill, I’d unroll them and get back on, they never bothered me. All he had to do was get out of the cab and the bison would get upset and chase him back into the cab lol lol lol
The bison are not dumb, they are just slow and take their time…and they will trample a fool…these are wild animals, stay away from them.
I feel sorry for them but they knew they were in the wrong, a bison doesn’t care what you are, once you are too close, it will attack
My heart breaks for the poor bison
WTF? Why? Do you know your impact on society? Millions of living creatures have died because of you. The building of your home alone killed countless creatures. YOU RAGING HYPOCRITE

Hope they didn’t kill the bison
Lol
@@kevinm.n.5158?
Praying for a speedy recovery and glad she’s alive. 🫶🏻💗🙏
Amen me too people judge way to much on the media❤
That is sad and I hope she gets well soon ❤
I think many people truly don’t realize just how wild Yellowstone National Park is. There’s danger pretty much all around you. Just bc it’s called, “a park,” doesn’t mean it idyllic & safe. There’s a lot of things in the park that can kill you, from wild animals, to the terrain, & the elements.
I’ve been there 3x (also hiked in the Grand Tetons (grizzlies, moose, cougars, wolves, etc).
When I’m out in “the wild,” I think of it like driving a motorcycle. You have to be looking around constantly, & be overly cautious.
I’m sorry that happened to that woman. I’m glad she survived.
T-shirt was a strange contrast to his tears 😭...
This guy knows full well they were in the wrong place!
Sounds like there is a selfie on a cell phone that shouldn't have been taken.
This guy knows he's going to be interviewed for TV and some part of his brain went "Yep, this T-shirt is the one I'm going to wear."
His shirt speaks volumes
Glad to hear that the bison is OK.
What about the women?
Me too !
I’ve been to Yellowstone I don’t feel bad for her at all. Her own fault and can tell her fiancé is lying . Natural selection
She doesn't want him to get hurt
You can feel his pain. But you cant feel sorry for people that are that ignorant or oblivious to the danger they walked into.
You’re evil
So you have never been bit by a dog in your life?
@@wanaraz: what does a domesticated dog and a wild buffalo have in common? Nothing
@@henryc1000those are not Buffalo they are Bison . It is mating season for Bison , they become more unpredictable in that time .
Wow! Our world needs more compassion and empathy and less judgment! Prayers for her a speedy recovery!
You were both way too close. My sympathy to you and your fiancee
It’s not an accident, she approached the bison on purpose. How many times do you have to be told?!! I’m a Montana gal and I like to see the animal win once in awhile. So stay the hell away or respect the rules. Go fund me?….. ridiculous.
These bison are sick and tired of people. Everytime someone does something stupid a bison dies for it.
They die anyway. They are raised for meat.
They blame it on the animal and not the people antagonizing the bison.
Just like running with the bulls, over in Spain??)(if this a true event)
Move over people because they will hurt you.
Not a petting zoo to say the least.
So sometimes (a lot) that people are idiots and animals are the best
You know what I talked to the bison the other day and he said the exact same thing you said! Grrrrrr
Bison that was 60 yards away was charging at her and she just stood there? I doubt that. She must have been 8-10 ft away from Bison. Anyways, I hope she gets well soon .Wishing her luck.
As big as they are, they can run at 35 mph. That's pretty quick.
In that area, you can hear everything for a long ways off. I think they might have been too loud.
@@michelletrimmer7431 , I know they can run but still 60 yards is a long enough for someone to react unless they thought bison just is like golden retriever puppy.
@@lokeshk4642 lolol
We were slowly driving through Yellowstone and there was a herd of Bison at the edge of the road. All of a sudden on my left side there was a couple on a motorcycle and they stayed there keeping my truck between them and the bison. Smart people!
Him: "We gotta respect animals"
Also him...
"I hunt."
If you can see a bison at a mile away, you go back in the house. She was very close to the animal.
I have been right up to a Bison by accident to the point we could have touched it. We did not see it until was came over the hill. But we simply walked back. I feel sometimes you take photos and your attention span is shortened. You don’t realize just how quick these animals are and how easily it is to get surprised by them. It is part of dangers when getting close to wild life. Bison have every reason to fear people.
They were "having their morning coffee" in an open field, and bison just "appeared" close enough to gore her before she could get away?
When I hear of a tragedy like this, I’m reminded how at a buffalo reserve I just visited in Montana, where, despite signs all over to stay in your car, car after car had people getting out and taking pictures, and toddlers were hanging out windows. The Yellowstone people tried to do the right thing, and were still attacked, but I’m amazed how many people think they’re perfectly safe. I’m told those huge beasts can run 35 mph…how fast can YOU RUN?!?
ever seen those Grizzly videos of \Yellowstone??? They're doing Mach after that elk calf. but no worries. Wolves get all the blame.
@dianecrai...I'm happy the toddlers didn't fall out of the cars but those parents are irresponsible.
You’re probably the only person who believes that man was telling the truth. Anyone who lives near bison can tell you that doesn’t happen if they were really doing what the guy said they were doing.
😂It’s bison country. He left her. He was screaming.😂😂
They did everything right. Thank God she survived.
Of all the videos I have seen, of drunken tourists harassing the wildlife, it's so sad, that two people who were being completely respectful of the wildlife, were attacked.
I wish nothing but healing, for both of them.
It's very sweet how you believe them. But I doubt they're telling the truth.
Yesterday's "story" was he was running away and looked over his shoulder to see his fiance' getting gored. Today it's "I told her not to run and we were backing away slowly."
Guarantee they were harassing the animal! Bison are like big giant cows they won’t charge at you unless you come over and start harassing them.
@@ThimbleFox350 But neither will admit that's what they did.
I'm not buying this story, sorry, this was not a freak accident-you were too close. I'm tired of animals paying the price.
I’m so sorry. I know you hurt and I hope amber will completely heal soon.
The bison needs to lawyer up. This sounds like slander
The only disappointing part of this is not getting to see the footage!!! 😢
I ain't getting on your bad side😮
They call them "wild animals" for a reason. When you enter a natural environment, you have to be aware of these critters and you are assuming the risk of such encounters. Unlike a lot of animal encounters in national parks, at least these people knew the danger and tried to avoid it but the risk cannot be fully mitigated in such situations.
“She was airborne”
“She did 2 backflips”
It’s like he was commenting on the olympics. 😂
Why did she get that close to a large powerful wild animal? You have to respect their boundaries.
I BELIEVE THEY WERE CLOSER!!!! I JUST DON'T BUY HIS STORY!!!!🧐🧐🧐🧐
You weren't playing safe,jerk,you were in the Bidons space.Poor Bison
2 collapsed lungs sounds horrific. I can’t even imagine how scary that must’ve been struggling to breathe. 😬
a go fund me? no friggin way man
As in Fred Sanford's words: YOU BIG DUMMY!!!
lol i heard his voice as i read it
@@johnirwin11 🤣
Why was she near a bison? They were way too close.
I have a strange suspicion he is not being genuine. I would like to hear the bison side of the story
$100 says she was too close trying to get a Bison selfie. Her long recovery is plenty of time for her to consider her actions.
The ancestral memory within the Bison told him what her ancestors did to his ancestors
Actually, the "Indians" aka Native Americans killed millions of bison, often just for the tongue and hump, leaving the remains to rot in the sun. They would run them over cliffs to their deaths.
@@michellegoodrich7115 that's possibly one of the dumbest thing I've ever heard
@@michellegoodrich7115liar! You would say anything to use as evidence that your people tamed the "savages"(that's the term you really wanted to use)! The natives respected nature to the point that they felt obligated to use every part of every bison killed. Yes, they ate the tongue; but, they used the skin and every other part too. Colonial liar!!
If I've learned anything from The Behavior Panel, it's that his extended eye closure when talking about what happened (at 1:06) reveals that he's lying about what happened. He lies throughout 0:21, 0:50, 1:20, 1:26, 1:38, 1:44, 1:48, 1:53, 1:56. This guy's eye blocking is crazy, barely kept his eyes open.
So nice to read all this comments from conscious people recognizing how much more important should be to protect animals than our own greed and curiosity.
Ill translate for the guy "she got too close and when I was screaming at her to move her a** she was too slow and the bison got her and flipped her in the air!" Thats really what happened. Stop blaming bison for doing bison stuff.
I was at Yellowstone last year and you wouldnt believe these idiots. A man with a baby in a stroller less than 10 feet away from a bison with a small wooden fence separating them. But god forbid my nephews ride their bikes on a trail that wasnt even marked a no bike zone. Honesty, the park rangers there kind of suck. They seem more concerned with arbitrary rules that allow them to collect fine money than protecting the animals and keeping them safe.
GOOD. Hope she learns a lesson. If that poor bison was close enough to GET TO HER SHE WAS TO EFFING CLOSE. Probably wanted a "selfie" 🤬
Wake up this is not the season to be a tourist in the wild. When birds, animals are mating, the sun is blaring and the energy is intense who wants the smell and sight of humans in the mix. Humans are so arrogant and disrespectful to the wild species. It is a miracle she is not dead!! This month I was walking in an area that although there are some wild animals around the place I was walking is a shopping village. Out of nowhere, never heard a sound very early in the morning, and suddenly I was hit on the side of my head so hard by a crow I thought it was a piece of furniture had fallen from the apartment above. Had me in bed for 2 days. Respect the wild particularly during nesting season and the deep heat. Peace to the World.
