Here is a picture I took of a guy who had great intentions, but was walking the fine line between helpful and becoming another park statistic. This Bison calf was separated from its mother and this nice gentleman thought he would guide the calf across the road towards its mom on the other side. I watched in disbelief, thinking trouble was just around the corner. He got the calf going the right direction and momma didn't realize what was happening. If she had, I'm thinking this Gent may have been on the next life flight chopper out of there. When visiting a National Park, it's wise to let nature run its course and leave the animals and their survival up to themselves and Mother Nature. A fine example of great intentions and one heck of a BAD IDEA! And no the man is not President Bush Sr.
