The Dumbest Animals In The Park Are…
(I work in a coffee shop in a Wyoming town that gets a lot of tourists in the summer since we are so close to a national park. I am asked or overhear this question, or something pretty close to it, at least once a summer.)
Tourist: “We’ll be visiting the park. What time in the morning do they let the animals out?”
Me: “Umm… They’re always out. It’s not a zoo; they’re wild animals. That’s their home.”
Tourist: “Is that… safe?”
Me: “Just don’t, you know, go up and pet a bear or a bison and you’ll be fine.”
