Yosemite National Park recently released a statement warning guests about feeding the wildlife within the park.

Apparently, a guest was feeding a wild buck by hand when it suddenly got spooked. The buck’s antlers connected with a young girl’s arm and chest and she was taken to a local hospital for further treatment.

I hope that little girl is alright. Such a shame that the actions of some dumbass adults wanting to feed a wild animal caused her injury. I don’t know who raised these people, but I can distinctly remember learning from a young age to never feed wild animals. I know most of you reading this blog would never feed a wild animal whether in a national park or not, but I feel like I have to shout this from the rooftops:

DON’T FEED THE WILDLIFE PEOPLE. PLEASE. PLEASE. PLEASE. PLEASE?!?!?!?!
