National Park Service warns about agitated bison during mating after women injured at 2 parks
It’s the second instance of a bison injuring a person in the past week. A bison gored a 47-year-old Arizona woman Monday morning in Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming. In the wake of the two incidents involving national park guests within days of each other, the National Park Service has issued a warning that bison can be easily agitated during mating season. “Bulls can be aggressive during the rutting season, mid-July through August.
She was then taken to a hospital in Fargo for “significant injuries to her abdomen and foot,” according to the park service. The Arizona woman also sustained significant injuries – in her case, to the abdomen and chest – after being gored. She was walking with another person in front of a lodge on the north shore of Lake Yellowstone when they saw two bison, Yellow Stone National Park said in a news release.
