Yellowstone National Park

With all the ridiculousness that tourists display each day inside the park by egging on these animals or trying to take selfies with them, it's no wonder the creatures are agitated. Tourists act more like paparazzi than people interested in getting immersed in the beauty of the park.

On average, Yellowstone National park has about one million more visitors annually than Yosemite National Park. So, does this mean that it might soon require a reservation to simply pass through the gates of Yellowstone?

The picture shared on Facebook is labeled as ‘Wildlife Safety’ and shows the good and the bad ways to interact with wild animals.

This was just a few days ago.

But you know all of this.

In what might be the final Yellowstone National Park touron video of April, a visitor can be seen walking up to within just a few feet of a massive bison. As one would expect, the animal didn't appreciate it and responded accordingly.

National Park Week officially begins this weekend across the United States with special programs, activities, and free access to all of the most popular parks.

There's one real problem with Yellowstone in the spring. Some of the animals are really gross-looking right now.

A short time after the violent collision, what appears to be a wolf can be seen approaching the injured animal. It's obvious from the footage that the elk was attempting to flee from the predator.

The Yellowstone Inheritance Pass is an interesting way that you can donate money to help preserve Yellowstone for future generations.

My advice to people planning to visit the park soon is to pay attention, and not become one of these statistics. Cameras have zoom lenses for a reason.

Recently there was a group in Yellowstone that were lucky enough to catch one of the rarest animals to see in the wild, and they caught it all on tape.

I grew up in a state park system.

Yellowstone is celebrating a sesquicentennial.

Bison require a very wide birth and are known to charge when threatened. A video posted to YouTube recently shows just how these animals can get a bit possessive with space.

It is nice to get out of town for two or three days and there are some neat places near Twin Falls worth taking a few days to visit.

If you've ever had the opportunity to travel within the boundaries of the world's first designated national park, then you know what a special place it is. I have some very fond memories from my trips to Yellowstone National Park.

Do you ever wonder what the animals in Yellowstone National Park do when the tourist cameras aren't rolling?

Winter in Yellowstone National Park can be beautiful and it can be incredibly dangerous. Possibly even more dangerous than during the summer months.

Not all of the animals will be shot or hunted.
