- Bison mourn one of their own that we believe to have been a cow that died the day before of complications from its calf delivery. Bison have been observed appearing to mourn the death of their herd members. When a bison dies in Yellowstone National Park, the herd will often gather around the carcass to pay their respects and protect it. Other animals, like wolves and grizzly bears, will keep their distance during this mourning process. #yellowstonenationalpark #wolves #bison
😭so heartbreaking💔💔🙏🙏😭😭
And to think of what that poor mama went thru.. and then having to die the way she did.. oh, poor girl! 😭❤❤
The circle of life isn't always pleasant
Yep - very true.
Awww... 🦬Another interesting video, enabling us to take a peek at life (& death) inside of the animal kingdom. I always look forward to your wonderful videos. Thanks so much for sharing! (:
Thank you so much and many more to post. Have a great week!
Thank you🙏🙏💜💙💚💛🧡❤️🦋🌈✨🤍 . . . 🕊️
You are so welcome - Please do share it if you can. Thank you again and much more to come.
So sad. Tears your heart out. 😢🦬 Go in peace momma and baby buffalo. 🙏💗
Very true Marcie and yet so many more will be born. You all get your scope yet?
Thank you for sharing these videos, really encourages me to visit Yellowstone!
You should! It is an amazing place to sit and watch and the park is huge. So many people never leave the road or their cars.
They are a magnificent animal, have a herd surround our van when we were at the Badlands! An awesome beautiful beast!
**BEAUTIFUL PRECIOUS ANIMALS!! I LOVE U!! TRUST ME MY FRIEND, THEY'RE BOTH RUNNING JOYFULLY IN THE BEAUTIFUL FIELDS IN HEAVEN!!**
Thank you much for commenting. Much appreciated.
Smutny 🥺 piękne pożegnanie członka rodziny.
To prawda - do widzenia, pani Bizon. Ale urodzi się o wiele więcej.
Real life is often times not pretty. She went through the days labor to in the end either deliver her calf and have them both eaten or to not deliver with the same ending. This is the way the creator made it work. Wolves have to eat... at the expense of the bison cow and her calf. This is beautiful though... and people still believe that it is only the two legged human animal that feels emotions ... what a pile of Buffalo chips ...
Thank you again for posting a comment, I am glad I lost light that night and just called it. It would have been hard to watch.
WOW! I just took for granite that as small as this herd is that you all would make sure that she was safe n havin problems with delivery would make sure she would have that calf! Guess (?) 🤗 we're not worried about? Must be why it's such a small herd then! Lol Feel bad about that! SAD!!! Learn something New every day! Thanks for the SHARE! 😲😪
Cows move away from the herd to calf. Most bison herds are under 30 cows. Rib cage looks small for a bison. Could be antelope or deer.
Thank you for watching and commenting!
Do you think the wolves could have killed her while she was lying down in labor?
This was moving - also fascinating that the apex predators stay back, allowing them to have this ritual.
Thank you.
No doubt. But my guess is she was either exhausted and or close to death from the calf being stuck. I didn’t really want to call this out in the video but she didn’t die where she was laying that night but rather moved about 30 yards, she might have drunk water and was killed or died over there in the grass. I have many videos - and I will post one as a short - of a wolf testing a bison… are you dead? When the bull got up the wolf walked off.
I reckon - from time to time - a bison's kick has ended or badly wounded a wolf. They're smart enough to stay clear.
Oh I have watched a wolf be almost destroyed by a kick followed by a head butt. I wish I had been recording it when I saw it.
MUY TRISTE Y REALMENTE EMOCIONANTE A LA VEZ.ESTAS IMÁGENES DEMUESTRAN LOS SENTIMIENTOS DE TODOS LOS ANIMALES
¡Muchas gracias de nuevo por mirar y comentar!

People think animals are robots 🤖

Thank you so much for subscribing and commenting.
thats nature but so sad
Yes very true and again thank you for being a subscriber Jody.
They really seem to be shocked as if they couldn't believe it. Is that possible?
They are amazing when it comes to their own dead. To be honest it is also why people know there is no such thing as a "bison hunt." While some bison will run a lot just don't and will stay by the fallen animals to also be shot, they don't understand. I can't watch that when it happens, I find it inhumane.
@@Yellowstonewolves That's terrible!! Is this happening in the park??😳
Just outside. I 100% understand the circle of life and it can be supper hard to watch but I can't watch this bison event. Watching a video of one of the ones posted online is really tough to experience. www.thewildlifenews.com/2023/02/02/travestry-of-tribal-slaughter-of-yellowstone-bison/
"Tribal hunting of bison began in 2012 with the support of state and federal agencies, who viewed it as a “management tool.” But the tribal kill is totally a volunteer decision. No one has to shoot bison. There is no gun held to the head of tribal members.
The so-called hunt has never undergone any National Environmental Review Analysis (NEPA), even though it occurs on federal lands. I hasten to add that many tribal members are uncomfortable with the spectacle of their people shooting bison from trucks or surrounding herds and cutting them down. But they are also unwilling to risk censure within their tribes by openly criticizing the slaughter of Yellowstone bison."
@@Yellowstonewolves I have (of course) never heard of this very strange decision of the authorities. It sounds terrible, like war on bisons, cruel and inhumane as any war. What use can it be?? I am not able to understand it and I really feel sorry for you if you are forced to witness this terror! Is there nothing one can do?
So sad but nature RIP
Dorene you are spot on - it happens in nature, nothing anyone can do about it.

The circle of life🔥
Very true - thank you for watching and commenting.
I did not know bisons had funerals that’s very interesting
How do we know they were “mourning”? We don’t.
I will let people who know far more than I do weigh in. Not many animals exhibit this type of behavior. Elk don’t, antelope don’t..
There isn't any flesh on the rib cage.
@@FuckPedophileBiden Biden isn't and never was a pedophile unlike those who have accused him of such.
Did you watch the video?
No but there is in the tummy of a wolf ot two.
Thank you
@sashasabbeth6836 - that person is now gone.
Think about it if they will eat their own what will they do to a human
Bison are not carnivorous fgs.
They are not eating their own.
Rest assured - no bison has ever bitten a human in Yellowstone. They much prefer to gored people with their horns. They will not chew on you afterwards.
