Wrong headline - buffalo - human encounter

It was a woman from Iowa, makes sense.
Sidenote: I found this sweet fossilized ice age bisin tooth on my latest kayak trip.
I actually found one once when I was a teen. Sent it in to be tested and found out it was a 200 year old bison tooth. And like the responsible teen that I was....I promptly lost it. That was a very long time ago and I'm STILL kicking myself in the ass on that one.
 
Before my first backpacking trip out west a friend told me if I get charged by a grizzly to go up a tree since they can’t climb trees. Never got too close to a grizzly, but upon returning home, I had several emails from him telling me to ignore that advice, as he’d had since seen videos of grizzlies climbing trees.
 
I had a run in with a grizzly last summer in Glacier while hiking. It wasn’t aggressive at all but wow... those are amazing creatures. Wish it a wasn’t so early in the hike, had to smell my undies the last 7 miles of it.
 
Early in this longer video, you can see a bull attempt to hump, only to get refused.

Great time to play with Bison, during the ruck!!!!

Can’t tell for sure, but does one of the guys appear to be reaching for his weapon? And another guy appears to be trying to point out which bison is the perpetrator! Classic!

It sure looks like it... wonder what would have happened if that guy shot the bison?

I'd like to think he'd get a horn up his ass. However, this is SD and they probably would have given him some sort of medal for bravery.
