I have always wanted to get a Bigfoot costume and mess with you bastards on one of our adventures. Jump out from behind a tree, let out a sasquatch howl and run toward you. The only reason I haven't pulled that one is because I know you guys are well armed and I would likely end up getting my ass shot!! :-)

You couldn't pay me enough to go through Yellowstone in the summer. I love going to the mountains to get away from people and relax on my ATV's with my fly rods. Going through Yellowstone at this point would not be a relaxing experience for me, dealing with morons stopped in the middle of the road for a gopher/bison jam would raise my blood pressure.
Oh crap, now the Chinese are starting to show up. For some reason they are the ones that normally have issues understanding the rules in the park. There should be some interesting news articles in the near future. [Reply]

Surveillance video shows a woman getting out of a white sedan after it stops in the tiger enclosure.
As she walks to the driver’s side door and opens it, a tiger suddenly attacks from her behind and drags her off.
The second woman was killed by another tiger that leapt at her after she stepped out of the vehicle to try to help her companion, the report said.
So, it sounds like the woman drug off by the tiger in the video was just injured, while the woman that got out to help was the one to get killed. Am I reading that right? [Reply]
