You won’t believe what these Yellowstone buffalo do!!!

"Don't run into our car!" Lol. Everyone's tallking about how this Bison ram this couple's car at Yellowstone National Park which caused $2,787.82 in damages (see 2nd vid), according to the car owner Tom Carter. That's more than a dollar per pound of the 2,000 pound bison!

So why did the Bison/buffalo ram the Nissan Xterra? According to Carter,  who was in the vehicle at the time with a friend, he thinks the buffalo were being agitated by cars. He told USA TODAY:

"There is a line of cars that is chasing the buffalo. Park regulations say you should not harass the wildlife and really what they should have done once they agitated the three buffalo is they should have given them space. But they did not," he added.
Carter, 60, of Dallas, who was a tour guide at Yellowstone in the 1970s and since has spent significant time hiking in the area, saw the animals approaching at about 300 yards away.
"I really thought they were just going to run right by. After he rammed us, the other two just stopped. I just happened to be in the right place at the wrong time."
