These guys are enormous and what amazed me is how the tourists ran towards it to get a better shot. I just used a zoom lens, sure that some of them thought it was Disney. Sorry for the filler of this fella but body clock all wrong, camera and filters need a good clean but head full of cotton wool
Great shot. I know what you mean about the stupidity of tourists. I remember when I was in Canada last year seeing a woman sending a little girl of about ten years old out of the car to photograph a bear - and telling her to get closer!
I think this is a Bison...of which I just learned the difference since seeing the article about Helen Keller. We all call the buffalo though. Apparently Bison run faster then buffalo, so best to have caution, i would think. Great shot of him.
Amazing - look at the power in those shoulders. I remember a 365er posting an article about swimmers and boarders going right up to a whale for a good shot in the bay......... durr...!
it amazes me how many people do not respect the danger that wild animals present - idiots
