Grandfather recounts being launched into the air by a Yellowstone bison attack

TL;DR Summary
65-year-old Carl Isom-McDaniel says a 2,000-pound Yellowstone bison picked him as a target and launched him into the air during a July incident captured on video, leaving him with a broken hip after a hard landing; doctors describe the injury as resulting from the landing, not a direct ram. Experts note bison can injure people in Yellowstone, especially during mating season when aggression rises, and the National Park Service urges visitors to stay at least 25 yards away and not approach for photos.
