  • Color me cautious... or color me dead!

    For many, a visit to Yellowstone National Park is the vacation of a lifetime. Where else can you stare into the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone, watch in wonder as Old Faithful erupts on cue, come face-to-face with a lumbering bison, or, hey, be boiled alive in a thermal pool? Perhaps you'd prefer to be torn apart by a grizzly bear during a peaceful morning hike?

    Yellowstone National Park offers its visitors more spectacular natural wonders and as many ways to die while enjoying those wonders than anywhere on the planet. If there's a way to die in Yellowstone, you'll find it pictured here, ready for your coloring enjoyment. This coloring book also offers facts about the park, advice on its many animals (peaceful and otherwise), and even a few tips to help you stay alive during what hopefully isn't your last trip to the Nation's first National Park.

    Majestic animals!

    Disturbing facts!

    This coloring book isn't for everyone! It depicts scenes of graphic violence, including disembowelment, dismemberment, electrocution, and immolation. Recommended for mature colorists only!

RAMMING SPEED!
What does it feel like to be impaled by a 2000 pound horned freight train? Ask the ever-increasing number of visitors who have gotten too close to Yellowstone's famous bison. While the bison you see from your car window might look harmless enough, rest assured: bison can move fast when annoyed and are capable of goring, disemboweling, and killing tourists who have crowded in for a closer look (or heaven forbid, for a selfie with the animal�something that resulted in a 2015 attack). It's important to remember that none of Yellowstone's animals are tame, and there are no fences or barriers to keep you safe. Photograph the bison from a respectable distance, and be mindful should one start to move in your direction!

Animal Spotlight: American Bison (Bison bison).
Tens of millions of bison once roamed the plains of the United States, but were systematically slaughtered by overzealous hunters. Today, nearly 150,000 of their descendants survive, both in protected places like Yellowstone and in commercial settings where bison are raised for their meat, much like cattle. In fact, you can now order a bison or beefalo (a bison/domestic cattle cross) burger in many restaurants�tasty! The term �buffalo� is often used interchangeably with bison, but is a bit of a misnomer. The American bison is only distantly related to �true� buffalo like the water buffalo.

Can a bison kill you?
Heck yes. Though not generally malevolent, bison are huge, horned, and hard-hitting.

Suggested Colors:
Selfie Stick Silver, Kidney Pink, Bowel Burgundy
