Ouch, he may need some dental work, my grandma always said don't mess with the bull.

I bet that's the last bull he slaps on the arse.

I bet he won't be able to eat steak for a while!!!

A classic example of why spectators should remain spectators and allow the handlers to be handlers. Note the worker in the red and black shirt stayed out of harms way and used his pole for prodding. Had the thrill-seeking spectator been in a better position perhaps the bull could have removed his reproductive abilities from the gene pool.

If you look closely, the idiot was trying to slap the bull on the rear...

An interesting fact - bovines and other large herbivores have a slit iris and thus have a very wide field of view – they can see from the tip of their nose to their rear end. It isn’t detailed view, but it is motion detection.

When I used to move animals, one thing you could do if you were behind them was to just flick your hand a little, not a lot, but it would make them notice and they would react. If you push hard, they push back (with kicks to the face). If you just make motion and then stop, they think about it and generally then move forward.

Of course, before you do anything, you figure out your escape route. If you don’t know that, you will suffer the consequences, these animals can move faster than you can think…

As demonstrated so well my that girl in the video a week or so ago, being tossed around like a rag doll by the buffalo..

Story from Yellowstone... as you drive about, often you will come upon a traffic stoppage - it's an animal and folks stop to see. The buffalo are not as scared of humans and vehicles as they used to be decades ago and it is common for the stupid two legged creatures to equate the closeness of the buffalo as tameness, which is clearly not.

We stopped with the throng and watched and listened. You could hear the bulls bellowing and you could see cows and young bulls coming down the draw, not running, but moving along to a new grazing area. Tourist man took his kids out the boardwalk toward the animals. Left son there and went back to get his wife. I went over to him and told him to go get his son _now_ and explained what was about to happen. From the bellowing, I could tell there was a really worked up bull on his way down the draw but we couldn't see him yet. The pattern of the herd that had already come down indicated that the herd would pass close on both sides of the boardwalk. "Go get you son now, and watch what happens after you get back" Soon after he got his son back, I showed him where that bull was, what the cows were doing how you could read the herd. Then the bull made it to the boardwalk and proceeded to shred a shrub at the end of the boardwalk feet way from where his son was left before. Then the bull got on the boardwalk and strutted and wildly swung his head.

The animals are readable if you think like them and don't attach human emotions to what wild animals do. Every video I have seen of the tourist who gets gored show that the animal is bothered by the stupid two legged thing and then with a quick shake of their head, hooks the stupid two legged thing and flings it out of the way.

Could I control the buffalo in the wild? No, but I could remain safe and at distance. There is an old saying that you can get a buffalo to do anything it wants to do...

And as the song goes you can't roller skate in a Buffalo heard.

I hadn't heard that about a Buffalo herd, had to look up the Roger Miller song...
