I was very excited to see this.
People were getting as close as they could to it and taking photographs. I understand it's like tame, but have some ethics! I walked up to a group of people thinking I was in the right place. I didn't realize that they were about 4 feet from it. I walked away...
A person kept following it around getting very close pictures! I said something to someone in the group, but people are ignorant. Again, I realize it's pretty tame as it almost walked up to me as I was hiding behind some phragmites and driftwood, so I left.
I left feeling very disheartened with our human race.
