"To confirm, though, our hospital has has no recent patient death as a result of the injuries being described by the NBC report," the spokeswoman wrote in a text message to the Star-Tribune.
Yellowstone National Park reported the woman's goring on Tuesday afternoon. That announcement from the park said only that she was injured. There was no mention of her death.

And yet, every time I drive through a herd of them, I want to open the window, reach out and slap one on the ass...one of these days I won't be able to stop myself. Maybe this weekend even.
Hahahahaha

Would not want my body or any of my rigs in the vicinity when a couple of those bulls tangle. Once went through the park in our Datsun 280Z. When seated in that rig one looks them right in the eye.
