"It's your responsibility to move away" – Yellowstone officials issue stern warning after 83-year-old woman gored by bison

Bison crossing road, Yellowstone National Park, Canyon Village, Wyoming, USA.

An 83-year-old woman has sustained serious injuries after being gored by a bison in Yellowstone National Park over the weekend. The news comes just two weeks after we reported on a herd of bison charging a crowd of tourists in the park.

The woman, who has not been identified, was visiting from South Carolina when she was attacked near the Storm Point Trail at Yellowstone Lake on Saturday. Though details on the incident are sparse, it's not uncommon for park visitors to get too close to bison, who are not naturally aggressive but can be defensive when they feel threatened.
