A 34-year-old man from Colorado Springs, Colorado was gored by a bull bison on Monday at Yellowstone National Park, not far from Old Faithful.
The man was walking near Giant Geyser with his family on a boardwalk when the bull charged the group. The family did not leave the area and the bull continued to charge and gore.
The man sustained an injury to his arm and was transported by ambulance to the Eastern Idaho Regional Medical Center for treatment.
Park authorities continue to investigate the incident, but officials remind visitors that even though they look bulky, bison can outrun a human. Visitors are advised to stay more than 75 feet away from bison at all times in order to be safe.
This is the second bison goring incident in the park this season.
