Image Title:
Bison Stare Down, Yellowstone National Park, WY

Photographer's Notes:
    Never get too close for an image like this - unless you have a zoom lens
    attached to your camera!  Very few guests to Yellowstone National Park
    know that the most dangerous animal in the park (besides humans) is the
    North American bison. With a few thousand bison roaming the open grassland
    sagebrush and wooded areas of the park, more people get way too close to
    this animal for "that extra special picture".  An average of four visitors to the
    park are gored each year by bison (by both bulls and cows).  In such a case, it
    is usually the person who was as fault, not the bison for encroaching on the
    others personal space.

    This image was taken in Hayden Valley during the height of the mating
    season. Bull bison are very "anxious" at this time of year and will charge at the
    drop of a dime!
