Yellowstone National Park rangers are once again warning the public not to
approach wildlife after being forced to investigate an incident where
someone brought a baby elk to a local police station.
Park officials say that during the Memorial Day weekend, visitors placed
an elk calf in their car while driving on US Highway 191 in the park and
brought the newborn to the West Yellowstone, Montana, Police Department.
It is unclear what happened after the young elk was dropped off.
“The elk later ran off into the forest,” officials said. “The condition of
the elk is unknown.”
Yellowstone says the incident is under investigation.
This comes after several incidents at the park where rangers warned
visitors not to approach wildlife.
Less than a week earlier, Yellowstone officers say a man intentionally
disturbed a bison calf, resulting in the calf’s death.
The Hawaii man recently pleaded guilty, resulting in fines and fees.
And while no malicious intent was found, Yellowstone staff said the calf
began to try to befriend people and follow cars, creating a hazard.
The rangers tried to reunite the calf but were unsuccessful in their
attempts due to the pack rejecting the offspring.
Earlier in May, a tourist was nearly trampled by a bison after trying to
pet it.
The bison was said to be grazing near a walkway in Yellowstone when
someone approached the animal to take a selfie.
National Park rangers remind visitors never to approach wildlife, which
could impact their well-being and survival.
Yellowstone warns that calving season has begun in the park, and cow elk
are much more aggressive towards people during the calving season and may
run towards you or kick.
Federal regulations require that people stay at least 25 yards away from
wildlife such as elk, bison and deer and at least 100 yards away from
bears and wolves.
Yellowstone National Park attracts more than 3 million visitors annually
and is one of more than 400 sites managed by the National Park System.
