Pierce Brosnan has run into legal trouble on the perilous terrain of Yellowstone National Park. The actor pleaded guilty to charges relating to an incident in November 2023, when he… accidentally strayed off the path!

What?

That’s right… on November 1, the Irish actor was in Yellowstone. Attracted by Yellowstone’s natural beauty, he strayed off the trail to take a photo at Mammoth Hot Springs… which turns out to be illegal.

Brosnan was facing two charges: one for violating a closed area and the other for leaving the trail at Mammoth Hot Springs.

On Thursday, in a closed-door appearance, he pleaded guilty to the first offence. In addition to his guilty plea, U.S. District Judge Stephanie Hambrick dismissed the second charge.

Brosnan was ordered to pay a $500 fine and make a $1,000 donation to Yellowstone Forever, a non-profit organization that supports the park. According to the court order, the payment must be made by April 1.

Brosnan apologized on social media for what he did and expressed his regrets on Instagram, explaining that there were no signs warning of danger or trespassing. The actor reaffirmed that he had a deep respect for nature and said that his mistake was not something to be taken lightly.

Yellowstone National Park has strict rules to protect visitors and the fragile ecosystem. Park management stresses the need to stay on designated trails for safety reasons.

Thermal zones can be dangerous and present serious risks, including burns. The sudden appearance of boiling water and unstable ground is just one of the dangers that can arise.
