In a press release issued Monday, Yellowstone National Park officials announced a baby bison had to be euthanized after a pair of Canadian tourists put the animal in their car, fearing it was cold.

"The bison calf was later euthanized because it was abandoned and causing a dangerous situation by continually approaching people and cars along the roadway," park officials said in a press release.

Officials tried numerous times to re-integrate the kidnapped bison back into the pack, but it was rejected by the herd.

The father and son placed the animal in the back of their SUV and brought it to a ranger station last Monday.

“They were demanding to speak with a ranger,” witness Karen Richardson told East Idaho News. “They were seriously worried that the calf was freezing.”

Reports suggest the weather was relatively mild the day the kid-napping took place, with a daytime high of 10 and a low of 3C.

"They sincerely thought they were doing a service and helping that calf by trying to save it from the cold,” Rob Heusevelet added.

Federal arrest warrants have been issued for three Canadian men shown walking off-trail illegally at Yellowstone National Park in a video that surfaced on the internet over the weekend.

The men are members of High on Life, a Canadian clothing company and producer of travel and adventure videos.

Reid said Yellowstone officials are still assessing what damage may have been caused by the men walking onto the hot spring.

Hot springs have sensitive wet, soft bacterial mats that play a role in the colors associated with the spring, she said.

“When people walk on them it actually makes like white footprints in the bacterial mat,” Reid said.

Don't humanize her by using only her first name. Her name is Linday Searcy.

She's the one who drives the blue Pontiac. Usually brings an egg salad sandwich for lunch.

The difference between 20 and 30 is huge, whereas with Fahrenheit you have a lot more room for nuance. For instance, if the forecast says 50s-60s, i know i probably need like a light coat. High 60s-70s, forget it, wear a tee. 80s, regular wear. 90s, shorts and lightest shirt, maybe some flip-flops. Above, strip down to birthday suit and swim in some sun block.

If you wanna be scientific, use Kelvin. Celsius sucks, euro-bros.

You'd think a guy who makes a virtue out of using the barbaric Fahrenheit system would at least know how to spell Fahrenheit correctly.

if we are scientific we use kelvins too. If we want everybody to understand... we use what everybody uses... celsius. you guys can stay in your foot clan cave and give receipe measures in cups, and call hand egg football.

I didn't understand shit regarding your weather forecast. so celsius wins!
a weather forecast here tells you like 16° in the morning, 25° in the afternoon... wonder how is that not precse enough for you
