"I made an impulsive mistake" – contrite Pierce Brosnan ordered to fork over $1,500 for Yellowstone trespassing blunder

Yellowstone national park thermals.

Hollywood actor Pierce Brosnan pled guilty to a charge of trespassing in Yellowstone National Park yesterday, proving he's not quite as wiley as his on-screen alias James Bond when it comes to moving around undetected. A Wyoming Magistrate ordered him to pay a fine of $500 and make a further donation of $1,000 to Yellowstone Forever, a non-profit organization that supports the famous National Park.

Brosnan had previously pled not guilty to the charges, which stem from his January blunder when he left the trail and entered a prohibited area near Mammoth Terraces, one of the park's many thermal hot springs. The area was marked as closed but the actor subsequently posted pictures of himself on social media posing in the snow while wearing a cowboy hat.
