How about start allowing hunting in national parks to thin the herd for 100 dollars a tag, thus making money. I know, I know. The gubermint would never allow it. They will hire some one to come in and shoot them at 500 dollar an animal and call it a big success.

Wha? They're to *big* to fail. Why not an auction?

Hurry! It's this Saturday!

Also see #43....Custer does a successful auction to cull ....although a hunt would be fine by me.

The idiots at the Park Service will insist on slaughter without any return on the usable carcasses. If they had a lottery for Montana Ranchers (based on their lands under gracing), then these ranchers could harvest their share, keep the bison away from their cattle, and sell their bison meat to Ted. Win, win, win (including the bison herd). But, the Park Service will probably screw it up.

If that’s not a prime cut cooked medium raw, it’s gonna be kinda chewy.

A few years back they imported a number of Bison from the island of Catalina to Yellowstone.

They filmed a movie on Catalina Island about 80 years and imported Bison there for the movie. They have thrived ever since.
