*Special Alert! Help Quarantined Yellowstone Bison!

** SPECIAL ALERT! **
Dear Friends of the Buffalo,
Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks (FWP) has released a draft Environmental Assessment (EA) on the translocation of quarantined Yellowstone bison and is seeking your input through January 12, 2010.
FWP’s preferred alternative outlines the agency’s intention to hand over 74 Yellowstone bison to billionaire Ted Turner, setting the dangerous precedent of commercializing public bison. BFC has strongly opposed quarantine, alternatively advocating for wild bison to be naturally restored on their historic range via protected habitat and migration corridors. That said, it is important that bison advocates try to help these quarantined Yellowstone buffalo get out of captivity and be released onto public and/or tribal lands, as was the stated goal of the Quarantine Feasibility Study.
Learn more and TAKE ACTION NOW!
Comments are due January 12, 2010.
