NOT A GOOD IDEA — Another video — yes, one of the countless videos — of a tourist at Yellowstone National Park disregarding boundaries and getting too close to animals has gone viral.

This time, the video which recently surfaced online, was taken July 21, 2025. The footage is credited to Brittney Mathews.

The video shows a man standing within feet of a bison. He is seen teasing the bison by throwing his hands up at the animal, walking up close to it and at one point, the tourist bends down and puts his hands on his knees while staring the animal down.

“Oh yes, here we go,” a man’s voice can be heard saying in the video.

“Oh my,” the woman says as they watch the bison approach the man.

As the bison walks towards the man, the man begins to back away from the bison. Lucky for the tourist
