RV PODCAST NEWS OF THE WEEK
Woman gored by Yellowstone bison after getting too close for a picture

A woman was gored by a bison at Yellowstone National Park last week after she got too close to the massive animal while taking its picture. The woman, from California, was tossed 10-15 feet in the air, and when she stood, was attacked again. She was taking the picture near her Bridge Bay Campground campsite, and ended up being flown to a hospital for treatment.

Rangers recommend visitors stay at least 25 feet away.
