Overview

• A 30-year-old man from Randolph, New Jersey, was gored around 9:45 a.m. on June 10 in the Upper Geyser Basin at Old Faithful.
• He sustained minor injuries and was treated and transported by emergency medical personnel.
• Officials said a large group of visitors approached too closely, prompting the bison to charge.
• This marks Yellowstone’s second bison goring this spring, following a similar incident involving a Florida man in early May.
• The National Park Service is investigating the attack and reiterates its rule that visitors must stay at least 25 yards away from bison.
