Description This was so funny to see in person!

The Bison had a pretty long line of cars behind them and when they walked past our car they were about 2 feet from from the door, the closest I've ever been to a wild animal of that size.

Yellowstone National Park.

Oh, God. That'd be scary, to have a bison so close to you... We saw a bunch of bison at Elk Island National Park during breeding season. There was this one male shoving a female onto the road. It was pretty cool, but scary at the same time.

I find it awesome that they stayed in single file line like the cars, they certainly are the leaders of the pack.

What a shot, and what a situation. What country was this taken in?

You know It would have been even funnier if they both had people riding them to work haha.

Yeah, they must be so used to all the people on the park; it's funny to see them "own" the road.

They actually didn't seem to care we were there, they didn't pay any attention to us. The guide to the park did have statistics on how many people died so far that year though, so I wouldn't get too close.

There are bison in Yellowstone Park?

Tons of them, I'm pretty sure it's the only place in north america where they still roam free.
