In an unfortunate incident, Clifford Walters pleaded guilty to intentionally disturbing the wildlife in Yellowstone National Park, specifically, for having fed, touched, teased, or frightened them. As per the U.S. Attorney’s Office, Walters is required to pay about $1,000, with half the payment going towards the park’s wildlife fund. This charge was pressed against him after he had tried to assist a separated bison calf struggling to make its way out of the Lamar River. However, this attempt led to the bison’s herd rejecting the calf, causing it to approach cars and people on the road – ultimately leading to its euthanasia by park staff. Though his actions were not considered malicious, the incident serves as a grim reminder for visitors to stay at least 25 yards away from all wildlife and at least 100 yards away from bears and wolves. It is imperative to respect the laws and regulations put in place to preserve the flora and fauna of our national parks.
