Bison takes Drunk Driving Test

We have had two days in Yellowstone Park. We are ticking off the list of creatures to be seen.

Chipmunk (seen, but too fast to be photos)
Elk
Wolves
Bisons
Squirrels

Unfortunately, the bears have stayed away. Given the health warnings, this is probably a good thing. We were recommended to spend $50 on a mini fire-extinguisher, to be available at all times, to be squirted into the eyes of an oncoming bear.

But the Bisons have been present in their droves (herds, actually). They are also freqently found on the roads themselves, seeing if they can walk OK down the centre of the road. See the video for the proof.
