I've had to stop many people, usually women for some reason, that want to "pet the Elk". A bull Elk is about as big as a Bison.
Exactly, these are wild animals not domesticated.

I will not be doing that again! The moose never even hesitated. He charged my bumper and did significant damage before wandering off. Who knew not to do that?!
The locals said, "Yeah. You don't honk at a moose."
I did not know that. Not what I would expect. I will file that away in the "things not to do if I ever see a moose" file.

Never mind me, I'm just here to marvel at the headline. Compact, yet precise.

Why are some humans so dumb around wild animals?

Having spent a lot of time in our national parks out west, the stupidity of humans never fails to amaze me! Wild animals are very unpredictable.

No wild animals are not unpredictable. People say this not really understanding the term unpredictable.

It was patently predictable what would happen, just as its predictable whats going to happen with most of these things. It was even predictable that Siegfried or Roy would get mauled by their tiger one day.

The stupidity of people is equally predictable.

What would be unpredictable would be if the Buffalo broke put a picnic table and invited that woman over for a game of gin rummy, that's unpredictable. Getting trampled and gored was totally predictable.
