Culling the herd....

We learned about animals and human stupidity on our first trip to Yellowstone, after entering from the North we came to Mammoth and watched a woman coax her child, 3-5 years old, to get closer to the cow Elk, presumably so she could get a better photo, i don't think she realized that Mama Elk could stomp a Mud hole in that child before she could click the shudder. We kept moving, so Hopefully nothing happened to the child.
Almost as stupid as the woman that asked where she could go to pet the bears. :S She should probably go to Jellystone Park.:R
