Close call for tourists who approach group of elk in Yellowstone | East Idaho News

I'm not going to lie. I find it funny when people get too close to wild animals to take selfies and then the animals lash out. Seriously, how stupid can you be to think it's okay and safe to get within throwing distance of a wild animal with spikes growing out of its head?

Reminds me of Forrest Gump, Maj Marty Hogan. Stupid is, as stupid does!

Elk and moose tend to be very big and although they appear docile when left alone but they have to deal with wolves and they can be very dangerous when they think they are threatened Maj Marty Hogan.
A few times we have been to Virginia Safari park which is off I-81 in the Shenandoah valley. There us a drive through park where you purchase buckets of feed for the herbivores which come to the vehicle with their massive heads and suck the food out of the bucket.
