Yellowstone National Park reports that a 72-year old woman from California was gored by a bison on the evening of Thursday, June 25th. The animal was near her campsite at Bridge Bay Campground. The woman reportedly approached to within ten feet of the animal multiple times in order to take its photo. She received multiple goring wounds. Rangers provided medical attention and she was flown by helicopter to Eastern Idaho Regional Medical Center for additional treatment. Park officials caution visitors to keep a large distance between themselves and all wild animals in the park and to not approach them.
