Escaping the Panic - a photo on Flickriver

Escaping the Panic

            It was a peaceful, idyllic scene - a soft drizzle of rain, several Bison (Bison bison) mothers with newborn calves. The moms were feeding while the "red dogs" ran after each other and nursed. Then . . . all of a sudden, one of the mothers started running around like she was crazy. It stunned her calf, and the other moms freaked out when she approached their calves. Our best guess is that a snake (there are rattlers all over the place here) spooked the female. Here a mom and her calf "hoof" it out of the area, to a safe spot on a nearby hill.
