 I have never seen bison this close in the badlands before. This was a great experience for the family! https://cdn.nostr.build/i/54a1091b56ad8af8d1e68092a89af26d19d1b779a7ab65b853b711765bc7ae0e.jpg  
 Badlands NP is amazing.  I ditched the main camp during an evening and took a little hike out. and up a gully.  a bull saw me and chased me into a thicket of bushes.  it trotted at me from a far distance away but didn't stop coming, so I had to get out of the way!

I eventually got back to the camp area.  I woke up earlier than most others the next day and a bull and a heifer walked right through camp.  literally right next to nylon tents.  everything was peaceful that morning but some humans got spooked

really great experience. I loved seeing wild bison 
 That’s a wild story!  Badlands is one of my favorites. Been there a quite a few times now and have not been disappointed once.
