Tourists vs. Elk: Who’s the Real Wild One?

Why do people keep getting way too close to wild animals? A viral Insta video shows tourists in Banff National Park practically begging for trouble by baiting a wild elk (even letting their dog join in!). The elk gave them a warning charge, but they still didn’t back off. Seriously, animals aren’t here for your selfies—give them space! The National Park Service says stay at least 50 yards away from elk. Team elk all the way! #WildlifeRespect #Banff #TouristFails #Travel
