Tourist Accused Of Kicking Bison At Yellowstone National Park

A tourist from Idaho was arrested after a witness said they saw him kicking a bison at Yellowstone National Park.

Rangers responding to the call first took 40-year-old Clarence Yoder to a medical center for treatment of injuries, and then he was transported to the Gallatin County Detention Center.

Yoder was charged with approaching and disturbing wildlife, along with other charges relating to being under the influence.

Yellowstone National Park guidelines tell visitors to stay at least 25 yards away from the 2,000-pound creatures. (newser)
