A small band of Bison jumping a fence and crossing a busy road. While these big animals can easily jump that high, it's amusing to watch them puzzle over the obstacle for a while before deciding to go for it!

*******************************************************************
New here? Hello! I'm Ariel. I live off grid in a tiny house (yes, one of those only 170 square feet and on wheels kind) in the western mountains of Wyoming. I split my own wood for heat, carry my water by hand, and attempt to grow as much of my own food as I can between the weather and wildlife here. Check out my many tiny house videos, like this one, ( • Life in a Tiny House c... ) also on this channel if you are interested in more about that.
I enjoy the stunning sceanery and wildlife that I am surrounded by on a daily basis. As a child, I was fortunate enough to be able to spend much of my free time exploring and playing in the woods. Little has changed now that I'm older I suppose. I moved to a place with a bigger woods and still enjoy spending my time outside hiking, exploring, and photographing the natural world around me.
Photography fascinates me. It is almost like a time machine, allowing a fraction of a moment in time to be frozen and shared later. Things that only last seconds or less, like a rainbow, relationships between people, the sunrise or sunset light that is constantly changing, or those fleeting interactions with wild things. It also creates a visual journal of my life. For me, photography is a mostly self taught hobby with the assistance of some very skilled friends.
As the eldest of seven children who grew up in a homeschooling family I had the opportunity, not always appreciated at the time, to learn to do quite a bit of work. I've enjoyed a wide range of jobs, everything from greenhouses and flower arranging to wilderness therapy with teens, to milking cows. Mostly, I enjoy doing the kinds of things that I think provide a real service or value to others. Some of my other hobbies include backpacking, hosting people, cooking, preserving food, anything to do with nutrition, Crossfit, skiing, bouldering, reading, journalling, and sitting around a fire and talking to my close friends. But photography is certainly one of my hobbies that gives me a great deal of pleasure. And sometimes, in between shooting photos, I take a few videos of the beauty I encounter as well.

Was in Yellowstone last year and one of the park rangers told us that at one point in time the park would cull the herds of the elderly bison. They then discovered that the remaining bison had a hard time migrating because it was the grandmothers who led the herd on the migration routes thru Yellowstone. I found that fascinating. By the way, Yellowstone was beautiful beyond words. I wish everyone in the country could visit this amazing park at least once.

The internet was definitely lying. They are struggling with this 3ft fence. Just because one bison made it over a 6ft fence one time doesnt mean 'bison can jump 6 feet in the air'. One of them can maybe get their back legs 4 feet off the ground, enough to propel themselves up to grab the 6ft ledge and pull themselves over.

It's amazing to me the high percentage of passerbys who never stop and take the time to marvel at animal behavior in the wild. It is a free gift from the Creator and if we would get tuned back in to the vibes and ways of the animals, they can teach us how to survive. If you remember, the wild animals felt the vibration of the Tsunami long before it became visible to humans, so they headed to higher ground where they all survived.

This is in a national park and the speed limits are very slow in most of the park as well as most people being there to see wildlife, so they are keeping their eyes open for critters. And there's signs everywhere.

Thank you Ariel for taking the time and share with the rest of the world. Such magnificent animals. Bisons are my favorite north american big game, has been ever since I was very little and still to the this day I am in so taken in by them. People really do not understand just how powerful these creatures are and at the same time so gentle. One time there was a wild life park with the Bison that i went thru and I purchase a bag of alfalfa cubes to feed the babies as you go thru the park. I happen to stop when there was a cow and calf. I rolled down my window and held out my with a cube. The calf ran over and stuck it head out as far as it could as I was holding the the cube on the tips of my fingers and not touching me the calf stuck out his tongue as far as he could with eyes rolled back into his head he very gently as best as he could and then took with the tip of his little tongue and just kind of lick it away from my fingers without every touching my fingers. So amazing and so cute that he was able to do that without ever touching my fingers. Now this guy was little less than a 100 pounds I could have very easily have picked this little guy up, as i was feeding him I was watching a very large bull I mean a very, very large bull standing off and watching me feed the calf, in a little bit this large bull decided to walk over to my truck, my truck was a 1978 full size 4 wheel drive Blazer, this bulls back was over the top of the cab he was so large, well the calf and mother stood back as this bull approached my blazer he got up to the driver side widow and I did not know what this bull intends were going to be, his head was so large that it extended past the widow and he stood there watching me, I was kind of afraid to move knowing if he wanted to he could flip my blazer over in a blink of an eye he was so large and his breath was so hot being that close to me you know, since I though he had no intends to do anything at the moment and he acted like he wanted some alfalfa cubes problem was the sack of cubes were in the back end of the blazer not knowing what really to do, I decided to craw over into the back and get a hand full of the cubes and all the while this big bull just stood there head kind of inside the window about as far as he could stick it in and with my hand full of cubes I climbed back into my seat and held out a cube for him to see what he would do. Ariel, you would never in your life would believe what happen next, this big bull bigger than my blazer with his head in the window took and stepped back enough for him to lower and stick his head out just like what the little calf did just moments before rolled his eyes back into his head stuck out his tongue as far as he could while I was holding this alfalfa cube on the tips of my fingers as far as I could stretch my arm out of the trucks window and this bull just took the tip of his tongue and as gently as he could and without touching any of my finger started to lick the alfalfa cube and take the cube away with his tongue. I could not believe how careful and gentle this giant, it was so amazing for a wild animal to behave like that. Bisions are so amazing creatures, no wonder the north american Indians treasured them so highly in their cultures. Thanks again for sharing Ariel. dd

Ariel, the bison that I encounter in that wild life park they were not tame animals at all, they were roaming in this 2,000 acre park just like the bison that you filmed. The only difference between the two yours is free roaming bison and my encounter were bison free roaming inside a 2,000 acre park. Yes I was very nervous with that big bull and what he might have done but ever since that encounter with the calf and that big bull that I will forever remember that gentle giant and calf. dd

Not so graceful as a gazelle, and I think I would call some of that climbing rather than jumping. Some of them were executing a 2-part jump: first their front legs, then their back legs. But hey! At about a ton when grown, they're tens of times heavier than most gazelles, and as long as they clear the bar, I think the I.O.C. would qualify the jump.
