Bison Attack in Poland’s Białowieża Forest Sparks Wildlife Safety Warning
A European bison charges and knocks down a tourist in Poland’s Białowieża Forest, then looms over him as onlookers watch. A photographer intervenes with his car to separate them, and the tourist suffers a deep calf wound and bruising, later hospitalized. The forest is home to about 1,176 free‑range bison, and officials urge visitors to keep a safe distance from wildlife, noting that even calm animals can attack if threatened.
