Bison Under Attack by Wolf & Golden Eagle | Yellowstone Wildlife Documentary

A massive American bison enters the dangerous summer landscape of Yellowstone’s Lamar Valley, carrying a hidden burden—swarms of ticks and biting flies buried deep within its thick coat. Small brown-headed cowbirds arrive as unlikely allies, carefully removing parasites from the bison’s back, neck and ears. But when the giant moves into the Lamar River seeking relief, a gray wolf begins stalking from the shoreline while a golden eagle circles above. Trapped inside a narrow rocky gorge, the bison faces a deadly two-level ambush. With the wolf closing in from the ground and the eagle diving from the sky, survival depends on raw strength, perfect timing and an extraordinary alliance between animals of completely different sizes. Witness a cinematic wildlife story of symbiosis, predator strategy and ecosystem survival in one of North America’s most spectacular wilderness regions.
