Bison Attack in Yellowstone | Savannah News

A 65-year-old man was violently tossed by a charging bison in Yellowstone, suffering multiple fractures—but survived. The attack, near Bridge Bay Campground, happened while he was walking with his grandson. Bison, capable of 35 mph and weighing up to 2,000 pounds, can turn deadly in seconds. McDaniel, recounting the ordeal from his hospital bed, said the crash after being thrown was worse than the initial impact—and his grandson escaped unharmed. With only two bison attacks reported annually in Yellowstone, this rare but brutal incident underscores the hidden danger of seemingly calm wildlife.
