This week we have part 2 of Yellowstone and it's all about the animals.  We go over what animals are in the park, specifically of the bison and grizzly bear.  We also talk about the bison and how they were nearly hunted into extinction and have since recovered.  And a few crazy stories of dumb tourists getting too close to wild animals.  And at the end a tale of an unfortunate Swiss woman attacked by a grizzly bear.  Remember... Yellowstone... It ain't Disneyland.

 

Several stories come from the book "Death in Yellowstone: Accidents and Foolhardiness in the First National Park" written by Lee H. Whittlesey.
