Officials said it was the first bison attack on a visitor this year at America's first national park, which exists mostly in Wyoming.
The park reopened Monday at the behest of President Donald Trump after closing March 24 to encourage people to stay at home during the coronavirus pandemic.Yellowstone's phased reopening includes access to two of the park's five entrances and allows visitors to tour sightsee in the lower loop of the park.
"When an animal is near a trail, boardwalk, parking lot, or in a developed area, give it space," the park service said."Stay 25 yards away from all large animals - bison, elk, bighorn sheep, deer, moose, and coyotes and at least 100 yards away from bears and wolves."Dennis Romero writes for NBC News and is based in Los Angeles.

The biggest problem facing us in the reopening? People.
Good move on the Bison's part
LostDiva Finally some payback.
commies are trying to take over and your talking about this
Shit happens when you don’t hide in the basement like joe Biden and the Democrats. NBC your depressing . Try being an American for once , if not LEAVE
People- don’t go up to bison. They are as ornery as they are big. They don’t like you and will not tolerate you getting close. 25 yards, a little over 3xs social distancing rule of thumb.
They don't want us there. Those animals better not be hurt because of the stinking human race.
👏👏👏👏
woman drives into bison neighbourhood gets out of her car drops the “B” word while posing for a selfie with a buffalo and the headline is “bison attack”...
I miss quarantining already...
👀
It's not like there aren't signs every where and instructions in the brochure you get on entering warning people of the danger. People are stupid.
Please stop calling it a 'bison attack.' Call it what it is, an idiot tried to take a selfie with a wild animal. NatlParkService
Happens. All . The. Time how about you report on the visitors that hit bison while driving through Yellowstone 🙄
Look at all those cars and maybe a baby by her.
🎶'Oh, give me a site, where the buffalo fight!'🎶...or, maybe she ordered buffalo stings...🎶'I see, a bad moon bison!'🎶...Hey, you crickets in the back, it's a two-drink minimum for you, too!
What a fucktard. Hope the bison is okay😭♥️
Blame China.
Bison are one of those beings with whom you really should practice social distancing.
There are, I think Buffalo on CatalinaIsland...just stay away from them...SocialDistancing
“The visitor got too close to the animal but refused medical transport, park officials said.” It ain’t the bisons fault.
They took back control of their natural habitat. Humans are now invading. Respect the animals or pay the price. Period.

LostDiva The bison told her to steppe off
I live in an area with many bears and I'm forever astonished at tourists who get WAY to close to wild animals hoping to get a great pic
Are the bisons telling us to stay home?
Only because to many people are rushing in and overcrowding!
Don’t mess with Buffalo BillsMafia
'The visitor got too close to the animal' Switch dumbass with visitor.
How did the bison get into her car? This is a mystery.
Based
Another way that reopening combined with Trumps racist rhetoric is killing people!!
Protect our bisons, wear a mask.
To be fair, the bison in the National Patks have to be wondering where the hell all these people just came from?
Life is hard and even harder when you’re STUPID!!
Bison have the speed of a gazelle, the inertia of a freight train and the temperament of a Trump Hater on Election Night, 2016.
nature doesn't want the humans around no more as well, its is after all divine meaning Covid19.
Keep distance. What's so hard to understand? I love animals but I also respect their space. If I saw a bison and her baby coming my way I'm out!!! See ya!
They said, go back to quarantine mfs🤣🤣
Even the animals know we shouldn't be open yet. Good to see it's the stupid people out first. I do applaud this Bison though for his attempt at culling the herd.
Bison didn’t concur on reopening.
Why was she outside her vehicle
Shows you can't fix stupid unless that person is gored
This happens every year. How about some real news?
Uh oh. The animals got a taste of life without humans and they’re fighting for their freedom! I don’t blame them. Humans suck.
They got used to being really free again... Now here they go again...car pollution and noise pollution...
Go Bisons!!
When will these east-coasters and out of staters ever learn? These aren't puppy dogs or cute ponies, they're 'wild' animals. Stupid is, as stupid does.
Beautiful animals, it's not the bison's fault, it's the lady's fault instead. She trespassed into the bidons territories and not the other way round. Only humans blame animals but animals won't blame humans 😂.
Bison pissed we’re back. big boy like “tf outta here, hooman.” Lol
Yup Mother Nature is a bitch! nobull stayinthecar
Wring heading and writing of article,,,, The woman tried to knock the bison,,,, By all counts we all know who the criminal is,,,,
And she forgets that animal has it own rules too. Animals says : Stay away from me 12 feet not six and take your own virus with you too when you leave , we have been peaceful for a few months until humans came back again with a virus this time Ha ,Ha ,Ha ,,,,,
They want their space back!
Whatcha y’all think was gonna happen? This was their land first y’all!!! Damn coronavirus be having everyone stay indoor and animals be runnin wild y’all. Don’t feel sorry for that lady all!!!! Real, real
I really wish these stories would start out with 'a park visitor, who ignored warnings about approaching wild animals, was attacked on this date...'.
Bison was like get the fuck outa here tourist😂😂😂
ZSHE ZSHUWDN’T AVE BYN TRIY-N 2 AND FEAD ITT! 😎🦏
Sounds like she got too close. Serves her right
Leave animals alone
You were supposed to stay 6 feet away from an animal and don’t take your picture like this the animals don’t like it 😂
Go buffalo!.
Let me guess, she wanted to get closer for picture and the bison said, no you don't.
Karens please remain in your vehicles.
Is the bison ok? Leave wildlife alone.
O gado anda arisco.
Did she try to pet it?
Did the bison get a covid test?
glad to see we are returning to our normal bullshit.
If the visitor dies, will it be recorded as Covid 19 related?
It’s almost as if Nature is saying “too soon”!
With the lockdown Bison thought the world was theirs again
I love how every single comment sides with the bison. TeamBison
Why so many cars ?
Well what did she do to it?
the animals have spoken
GOOD! Leave nature alone!
Every time I see a story like this, my first thought is “what did the stupid human do this time” 😂
Leave those animals alone!
In Yellowstone bison have the right of way
This wasn’t an ‘attack’. Park guidelines clearly state ‘stay 25 yards away’, & it’s posted EVERYWHERE. This woman got too close, and the bison responded. Because - that’s 👏🏽 what 👏🏽 bison 👏🏽 do 👏🏽.
Shit mom and dad are home. Party over
She was probably trying to take a selfie. Why else would anyone get close to a bison? I wonder if she did the duck lips thing and the bison was disgusted?
Hard-hitting News you can use every day.
It mistook an obese IT guy for a competing bull. nature fury diabetesawareness
You just can’t escape the Wuhan Virus
damn we should totally close the park down now huh?

Stay at Home.
Bison are not fluffy cows. They are very strong and very protective of their heard. They can run up to 30 mph in short spurts. DO NOT GET OUT OF YOUR CAR AND TRY TO PET THEM!
25 yards is not far enough away from any wild animal. They can close that 25 yards before a tourist has a clue that they are have invaded the critters legitimate space.
Poor animals they felt liberated from us for two months and now they dont know how to deal with the old usual

Karen wanted to speak to the manager about the traffic.
After Murder Hornets, the next logical step was, of course, Battle Cattle. BattleCattle
Probably trying to take a selfie. Woman just got killed by a gator in South Carolina, wanted to 'get close to the animal', got four feet away, snatched and killed her. Had a bison within 30 feet of me at Yellowstone, was on my porch at Lake cabins, he was outside by a tree. Cool
SHE got too close. The bison acted accordingly. Even they know humans are trash.
Everyone back inside. If we can prevent one death by Buffalo, than dagnabit we must stay home.
Good. She deserved it. Stay AWAY from the wildlife. They have signs literally ALLLLLL over the park. But, as we know you all don't follow the rules or being told no...🙄😒
As usual, the privileged, arrogant human probably decided she wanted to take a selfie/touch the awesome majestic buffalo aka bison,... “The injury happened Wednesday afternoon in the Old Faithful Upper Geyser Basin when the woman got too close to the animal park officials said”
animals have had no people to bother them and if you are stupid enough to get out of your car, oh well
Poor things. Just look at how annoyed they must be to see all these stupid motorists again.
Sadly, sometime while bleeding out from being impaled by horns he somehow contracted and died from the covid-19, RIP😥
Keep the place closed
Bison 1 Americans 0
Getting desperate to keep people scared and staying home
A bison attack? Surely, the bison whose ancestors and families have lived there without humans for hundreds, if not thousands of years, just decided it was human hunting season! What’s so different? mothers with babies win! wildlifeFirst
Annnnd of course - she got too close. What do you expect.
PaulZeise social distance from bison!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That’s what’s suppose to happen. She should have practiced social distancing like the bison told her 🤷🏽♀️
good.
Covid attack says msm
“THAT BISON WASNT SOCIAL DISTANCING!!!”- KAREN
Let me guess, Karen wanted a selfie?
Gods way of telling people stay tf home
The bison was hoping all these creeps were gone for good!
Chalk another death up to COVID-19.
😂
This happens often. People are stupid!
They just need to chalk it up as, lesson learned.. what did they think was gonna happen when they got up close to a wild animal? 🤦🏻♀️
Humans be like
