Bison Management Plan is out of control
Letter

The Interagency Bison Management Plan has gotten out of
control! The capture facility inside the park was proudly
described as, "ready to go"! They are going
to start quarantining calves and yearlings, which may
not work, and if not, they'll just have to kill and culture
them all. Shameful! Cowering to the interest of the Livestock
industry!
National Park Service has a capture facility for use of
capturing and quarantining Yellowstone bison. They are
vaccinating with an ineffective vaccine and allowing USDA
tags in our wild free-roaming native bison! Cowardice!
The Forest Service is putting a capture facility on national
forest land to capture and kill native bison for cattle,
an invasive species, "protection"! Cowardice!
Fish Wildlife and Parks is harassing wild bison on public
land for cattle, an invasive species, "protection."
Cowardice!
The Department of Livestock does not have the courage
to tell the truth. This is not about brucellosis! If it
was they would be pushing harder for the eradication of
all wildlife. The elk and moose have it, and predators
can transport it. How about instead of millions of taxpayer
dollars going to eliminate the native species, vaccinate
and find a foolproof vaccine for cows? Because it's not
about brucellosis. Stop cowering down, stand up straight
and speak up for buffalo!
