A wildlife biologist at Yosemite National Park was fired after draping a transgender pride flag from El Capitan.
Dr Shannon Joslin, who holds a PhD in genomics and studies bats, was fired from the park earlier this month following the stunt on May 20 of this year.
The 35-year-old, who is nonbinary, and six other climbers, unfurled the 55-by-35 foot pink and blue flag one third of the way up the iconic granite monolith.
In doing so Joslin had 'failed to demonstrate acceptable conduct', the park's acting deputy superintendent Danika Globokar said in their termination letter.
The day after the stunt new legislation was brought in outlawing the display of large flags and banners on El Capitan and the rest of the national park.
That decision was part of a larger push by the government to limit the amount of political demonstrations on public lands.
In a social media post explaining the dismissal, Joslin described the role at Yosemite as being their 'dream job'.
'I hung the flag in my free time, off-duty, as a private citizen. El Capitan has had flags hung on it for decades and no one has EVER been punished for it. Only me.
'No part of hanging the flag was done on work time. NOTHING about it had anything to do with my work,' Joslin added.

HA! In your face, Professor!
People go to Yosemite to view nature. Not the unnatural.
She’s actually very pretty on her Linked in profile picture. Must have been before she went to the dark side.
Ask him to name animals in the world that “change sexes” to the degree that human suddenly are. Bet he can’t.
Not surprising.
Someone call a waahhhmbulance.
And Daily Mail goes along with her insanity by referring to her as “they”. Bye, bye sicko.
lol!
“Dr Shannon, who studies bats....”
Moonbat?
Bats in the belfry?
Batty?
I guess if you like that moonfaced fathead look on a chick. Different tastes...
Batsh*t crazy 🤪
OOOOOOHHH yea thank you forgot that one!
Heh, heh. My pleasure. I’m here to serve.
What a moron. And studies Bats! SO he’s Bat-crap crazy!
A guy & girl?
I suppose you’re right, “very pretty” was a stretch. She was at least unmistakably female. She had a fortunate head turn that minimized the full moon aspect at least.
Poor Baby!
Dozens of conservatives have been fired by their employers for voicing their views on their personal social media pages over the last decade or two.
If you embarass your employer it can lead to the end of your employment.
Don't you think that this pain should be equitable regardless of your race, creed, or gender?
