Another one? Common sense is not so common any more.

The clip in the article where the animal smacks the car reminds me of the "legend" of a large bull charging a locomotive in the early days and knocking it off the rails.

If you hike in Yellowstone Nat'l Park, which isn't yellow by the way, it's hard to stay 25 yards from bison. The bison are everywhere and were often around the corner, on the road, in the campground, right by the tent, or over the hill, and occasionally resting in the forest. I was literally engulfed by a herd at Pelican Valley and at my campsite, where I had to walk thru the herd to get out.

I'm sure hearing the park rangers constantly yelling at you to put the bison down was annoying.

I just read an article about some dummy trying to take a selfie with a rattlesnake. So far his doctor bill is at $150,000 and I don't think he got the selfie.
