[NOTE from All-Creatures.org: The confinment, harassment and slaughter of bison is because cattle ranchers do not want wild animals “competing for food” with their cows. GO VEGAN and you will help save bison!]

HB 194 is another attempt by special interests to block the resoration of wild bison in Montana. This act must not become law.
Contact Montana Governor Steve Bullock and let him know you stand for recovering America’s wild buffalo. If you live out of state, let him know why you visit Montana and what is important to you. Tell him to veto HB 194.

INFORMATION / TALKING POINTS
- HB 194 is an act requiring a forage (range) analysis before wild buffalo (or bison) are released, transplanted, or migrate naturally, onto land in Montana.
- HB 194 is another unfunded mandate required to be performed before transplanting or reintroducing buffalo as a wildlife species in Montana.
- HB 194 provides no funding for a required forage analysis by a range scientist from MSU-Ag or US NRCS.
- HB 194 uses agricultural theories based on livestock grazing principles rather than professional ecological analysis by wildlife and wildlands professionals.

Signed.
Signed and writing e-mail to the governor. The bison need at the help they can get in this big-time ranching/hunting state. The ranchers want all the room for and the hunters want the kills. Pretty sad state of affairs. Looks like we will never stop harassing and killing bison and wolves.
