When at Sturgis many bikers don't know anything about Bison.. they are dangerous. I was on a harley and a herd of buffalo was on the street. Just one bike and the sound of the mufflers pf the bike sent them up a steep hill.. this bunch did not move and I would have turned around and left..don't mess with bison.. they will gore you with their horns.
I remember the time up in Maine that I honked at a moose. Air-Horn in an 18 wheeler, and the moose was licking my bumper at a rest stop.
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."
The tourists do the same thing with the Elk in Estes Park in the Fall.
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.
And every bit as ornery.
