Outstanding Bison Herd Captured On Video Charging A Bus

Wild animals are incredible to watch. Wild animals can give you memories that will last a lifetime. Wild animals can mess your day up in a matter of seconds.

Two of those statements were true for wintertime visitors to Yellowstone National Park.

The only entrances that remain open all year are in the northern parts of the park, and Monmouth Hot Springs is pretty much the only area that offers services.

Snowcoaches are one of the few ways you can travel into the park during the winter months. Since most roads are closed to regular traffic, snowcoaches allow you to see the park in a way that most other visitors will never have the chance to see.

When you ride on one of the snow coaches, you see the sights of the park without the distraction of driving. The drivers aren't just drivers; they're tour guides who can provide you with information.

Of course, animals are one of the main attractions people want to see when they visit the park. Just like when you visit during the summer, you're never quite sure where or when you'll be able to see any of the animals.

If you look one way and look back, they will appear out of nowhere. On other occasions, you'll be in a situation where you're unsure what to do and hope for the best.

Which was the case with one snowcoach group.

The coach was stopped on the road when it saw a dark mass heading straight for it. As the mass approached, a herd of Bison charged forward, heading straight for it.

There was nowhere for the snowcoach to go. If the bison didn't veer off the road, it would be a head-on collision.

In this video, one of the passengers asks the driver if they would run into the coach. Most of the bison did swerve and missed the head-on collision by just inches. A couple did make contact, but nothing serious.
