When I finally visited Yellowstone, I expected wilderness. Silence. Majesty. Instead, I saw a traffic jam — hundreds of cars lined up to take photos of one poor bison. People were honking, shouting, even walking toward it for a selfie. A ranger yelled, “Get back!” but nobody cared. Someone yelled, “It’s MY vacation!” That moment said everything about what tourism has become. Yellowstone felt like watching nature perform behind glass. The geysers were still breathtaking, but surrounded by selfie sticks and trash bins, they looked… smaller somehow. We say we want to experience nature — but maybe we just want to own it. #Travel #Yellowstone #Overtourism
