Maybe they should let global warming thin the herd.
To: Daffynition

I’m thinking let indigenous tribes take them out
with stone tipped spears.

If it is to stop buffalo from moving into private land, fine. But if it is to protect ranchers who buy a 10 acre spread and simply have grazing leases on BLM and forest land, they should have to deal with whatever wildlife is there.

There’s no such thing as public lands, just land that the state is currently occupying illegitimately, JMO.

Buffalo have a very wide range in North America. And much of this range is federal land taken from the states. However, this also means that the buffalo could be spread out in isolated herds without endangering cattle. Importantly, some of these herds could be privatized for commercial meat production.
In 1989, when Ted Turner bought the 113,000-acre Flying D Ranch, he sold off all of the cattle. Shortly thereafter, he repopulated the land with the great American bison. Since then, his herd (spread across ranches in seven different states) has grown to 55,000, 11 percent of the world’s population of 500,000.
No reason other ranchers couldn’t raise herds, as long as they kept them segregated from cattle.
