YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK

It's the third time in a month that a visitor has been gored by a bison at Yellowstone National Park after getting too close to the animal.

Yellowstone is reopening after historic floods washed out critical infrastructure, but there's still work to be done to get the town and park back.

The bison charged at a 71-year-old woman, causing non-life-threatening injuries. It was the second goring at the park within two days.

This is the second report in three days of bison attacking tourists in the park, and the third report in a month.

The charging animals narrowly missed attacking a child.

A Colorado man who Yellowstone National Park officials say got too close to a bison was thrown by the animal while trying to get himself and a child away from danger.

On Monday, a bull bison gored a Colorado man while he was walking with his family in Yellowstone National Park. The man's arm was injured in the attack.

Video shows family members rush to pick up a small child as the bison charges toward them.

It's unclear how close the 34-year-old Colorado Springs man was when the bison gored him, but the Park Service said this was another case where a visitor got “too close to the animal.”

The man was walking with his family on a boardwalk when "a bull bison charged the group," the park said.

Grand Canyon National Park has decided not to extend a pilot project this fall that used volunteers to kill bison to downsize the herd.

A bison herd that lives almost exclusively in the northern reaches of Grand Canyon National Park won't be targeted for lethal removal there this fall. The park used skilled volunteers selected through a highly competitive and controversial lottery last year to kill bison, part of a toolset to downsize the herd that's been trampling meadows and archaeological sites on the canyon's North Rim. Introducing the sound of gunfire and having people close to the bison was meant to nudge the massive animals back to the adjacent forest where they legally could be hunted.

Devastating floodwaters that wiped out miles of roads and hundreds of bridges in Yellowstone National Park and swamped scores of homes in surrounding communities moved downstream Wednesday and threatened to cut off fresh drinking water to residents of Montana’s largest city. Heavy weekend rains and melting mountain snow had the Yellowstone River flowing at a historically high level of 16 feet (4.9 meters) as it raced past Billings. The city gets its water from the river and was forced to shut down its treatment plant at about 9:30 a.m. because it can't operate effectively with water levels that high.

Grizzlies in the Yellowstone region are federally protected as a threatened species.

Grizzlies raid caches of whitebark pine cones that are hidden by squirrels and devour the seeds within the cones to fatten up for winter. The officials added that overall, whitebark pine stands have seen severe reductions in regeneration because of wildfires, a fungal disease called white pine blister rust, mountain pine beetles and climate change. As with whitebark pine, loss of the bee's habitat was considered less important than other threats. The two cases underscore a pattern of opposition to habitat protections by the administration of President Donald Trump, environmentalists said. Whitebark pine is another example of that,” said Noah Greenwald with the Center for Biological Diversity.

A 72-year-old California woman was gored by a bison in Yellowstone National Park, a news release from the park said. The woman approached the bison to take a picture and got within 10 feet of it multiple times before it gored her on June 25, according to the release. The news release said the woman approached the bison several times near her campsite at Bridge Bay Campground in northwest Wyoming before the bison charged. "To be safe around bison, stay at least 25 yards away, move away if they approach, and run away or find cover if they charge." Park visitors must stay 25 yards away from all large animals in the park including bison, elk, bighorn sheep, deer, moose and coyotes, the release said.
