The federal government doesn"t have the intestinal fortitude to manage any animals on land that they are responsiible to manage. Yellowstone was overrun with elk and bison and rather than cull the excess animals to match the carrying capacity of the range, they want to turn them out to the nationl forests. Never mind that they are open range animals. So what will happen is they will break down the ranch fences and start grazing on private land. They won"t allow hunters to come in and cull the animals. So they introduced wolves which have cut the elk population drastically but the big, shaggy bison and he** on wolves. They allow a limited number of Native American hunters to cull a few bison but not nearly enough to get the population to where it should be. The bison drift out of Yellowstone on to the surrouding natioal forest where they acan come into contact with cattle on grazing allotments. Cattle are a big part of Montana"s economy and the stockmen are really nervous because the elk and bison can carry Brucellosis. Then we have all the enviromentalists who want to re-introduce buffalo back to the range. How you gonna" keep theose buggers hwere you want them? If they managed them like they do on the National Bison Range where I live,(behind an 8 ft high electric fence)I suppose that would work but then they woudn"t be "free roaming". They"ve introduced wolves and put them under federal protection as an endangered spiecies never mind thet we"ve had them here drifting down from Canada for forever) and they"re killing stock and causing low weaning weights and slouhed calves and limiting grazing on PRIVATE PROPERTY WITH NO COMPENSATION. We were supposed to have 300 wolves in the three state ID-MT-WY area and we have over 1700 and growing.
Let me tell you folks, it"s really nuts here in Montana! People don"t count. Wild animals do.
