The sad post

The wonderful, one of a kind Yellowstone...


We just came back from Yellowstone park last week and there was horrible news on the Internet yesterday. A hiker was killed possibly by a grizzly bear on Wednesday or Thursday. This is the second death this summer in Yellowstone and it is very sad and scary.

Wildlife is dangerous, do not approach! You can see this signs everywhere in the park and these two deaths are just an extra reminder. What exactly happened we can only guess but this is something that could of happen to anyone.

My heart and prayers goes to the families and friends of these two people I never knew.

Please always be safe even while on vacation.

Sad news indeed! One should always be aware of the danger around wild animals, no matter how fluffy and cute they look!

What a terrible news... Wild nature stays wild anyhow..

That is terrible news. My husband and I went to Yellowstone this June, so beautiful there. We came across a bear but there were two rangers doing a great job at keeping everyone quite some distance away. Everyone wants to get great photos of the amazing wildlife you can view there but we have to remember that they are wild and that it's not worth risking our life over. My heart go out to those families too.
