The bison, defending its space, came within a few feet of the woman and lifted her about a foot off the ground with its horns. The woman sustained serious injuries. Park emergency responders transported her to the Lake Medical Clinic where she was flown by helicopter to Eastern Idaho Regional Medical Center. The incident remains under investigation and there is no additional information to share at this time, including the woman’s condition.
The park reminds visitors that it is your responsibility to respect safety regulations and view wildlife from a safe distance. Move away from wildlife if they approach you.
