Pretty graphic watch at your own risk.

Once again people get to close to a wild animal and it attacks. what does it take for people to stay clear??

A raging bull bison charged at and tossed a 9-year-old Florida girl several feet into the air at Yellowstone National Park.

The shocking incident, which was caught on camera, happened as a group of 50 tourists loitered closely around the animal for nearly 20 minutes in the Old Faithful Geyser area on Monday afternoon, according to the National Park Service.

Footage from the incident, shot by somebody just feet away from the bull bison, shows the animal calmly grazing on a hillside before charging and walloping the girl.

Wow that animal is massive.

So many people have so little respect for nature, walking around there like it's a cow in a pasture.

Poor child... my sympathies to her. She has idiots for parents. I hope she recovers fully.

Tourists never cease to amaze... in a bad way.

One of my friends used to work in a National Park, and she'd get so frustrated at the people who act like they're at a petting zoo. Yes, nature. You want to see the bison. Stay away from the bison.

Nine year olds are made of rubber, apparently. Amazing this girl was treated and released from the Old Faithful Clinic.
