Man's attempt to help Yellowstone bison calf leads to its euthanasia

TL;DR Summary
A man intentionally disturbed a newborn bison calf in Yellowstone National Park, causing it to be abandoned by its herd. The calf was later euthanized by park staff as it was approaching cars and people along the road. Interference by people can cause wildlife to reject their offspring, and park regulations require people to stay at least 25 yards away from all wildlife. Anyone with information about the incident is asked to contact the Yellowstone National Park Tip Line.
