Herd of Bison Cross River in Yellowstone National Park

A vacationer from Texas was treated to an amazing sight during his visit to Yellowstone National Park last week, as he spied a herd of bison swimming across a river.

Recording from a safe distance, Paul Stinson captured footage of the animals swimming through a river on the national parkland.

Describing it as “one of the best videos I have ever shot,” Stinson wrote on Facebook that he was “in the right place at the right time.” Credit: Paul Stinson via Storyful
