Summary  
Many visitors to Yellowstone National Park and Glacier National Park ignore the rules the parks have set up to keep them safe and both protect and preserve the parks. Some new and bad trends are taking selfies with wild animals and putting graffiti on trees or rocks and then posting pictures of the graffiti on Instagram or Facebook. Social media is the common thread with these two behaviors. This film explores the psychology behind these "negative interactions with the parks". What tempts people to break the park's rules? Personal background, environment and social psychology may all play a role.
