( photo also of the young man ( Ignicio) in the video)<br \/>This is what Deric had to say<br \/>Pretty exciting last few hours at Yellowstone. This wolf started running after people, and by the time I turned around and had him in the spotting scope. I was able to get a few videos, including this one. He zeroed in on this guy. He was hiking on a trail through Lamar River Valley and did everything right.<br \/>It was pretty exciting. I got to talk to him. He\u2019s the guy in the middle. Several Rangers came in, and he had to give a report, and they took my video. Apparently, they were going to close that area down for a while. Could\u2019ve been worse, I know I had fun, lol, but he was freaking out. Good for him, though he was calm and didn\u2019t freak and run!<\/p>\n<p> <!----><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p data-layout-index=\"5\">You can watch the incredible footage below, and let me know your thoughts at <strong>David.Hookstead@outkick.com<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p data-layout-index=\"5\">There are few situations in life I can think of that would be more nerve-wracking than to have a wolf stalking you. Granted, better a lone wolf than an entire pack, but either way, it&#8217;s not an ideal situation to find yourself in.<\/p>\n<p data-layout-index=\"5\">Fortunately, this tourist remained calm, didn&#8217;t panic, didn&#8217;t attempt to outrun the wolf and, instead, stuck to the tools at his disposal.<\/p>\n<p data-layout-index=\"5\"><strong>A PRACTICAL GUIDE TO NOT GETTING MAULED BY A BEAR WHILE HIKING OR CAMPING THIS SUMMER<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-layout-index=\"5\">All is well that ends well.
