A Woman Films Herself Being Charged and Gored by a Bison…Why She Deserves It
A woman is going viral after she recorded herself being charged and gored by a bison. Now this story was obviously created for this woman to get clicks online. For this reason, she deserves whatever injury comes her way. Before I get to the reasons why, let’s fill you in on what happened.
TikTok user Rebecca Clark was recently hiking at Caprock Canyons State Park & Trailway in Texas. Soon into the hike, she encountered a group of bison on a trail. The video shows the bison moving away from Rebecca, however, one of them eventually turned around and charged her which led her to falling on the ground screaming. The video now has 2 million views on TikTok and Rebecca says she shared it “to support safety while enjoying Texas State Parks.” A spokesperson for the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department told People Magazine
“We have been in touch to ensure their health and well-being, and remind visitors they should never approach bison,” the spokesperson said, noting it’s important to always “maintain a minimum 50 yards distance from the herd.”
Here’s why Rebecca deserved what came to her: #1 she got too close to the bison, obviously doing it for views and clicks. It worked. #2 when the bison attacked her, she should’ve stopped filming and ran or at least tried to get away. At this point, safety should always be your first priority, not trying to get likes and clicks for social media.
There is a lesson to be learned here kids. Your life is more important than being social media famous. Consider not just your life, but your friends and family’s lives as they will be the ones who will miss you when you’re gone. Stop being selfish for likes and clicks. It shouldn’t take being eaten by a bison for you to realize, social media aint that serious! ~ Ramiro

BAD BERLEBURG, GERMANY – MAY 05: A European bison bull chases another at the Rothaargebirge mountain on May 5, 2014 near Bad Berleburg, Germany. The herd is a project of Wisent Welt Wittgenstein, a government-funded initiative which last year released the herd in an effort to restock the bison in the wild. European bison were once plentiful across Europe and Russia, though their numbers were decimated to near extinction by hunting and habitat encroachment. (Photo by Thomas Lohnes/Getty Images)
