Yellowstone Park ships 200+ bison to slaughter, more planned - conservation group

2015-01-24 06:01:50| Livestock - Topix.net

Yellowstone National Park's bison population is about to start getting much smaller, as the park has reportedly sent at least 200 bison to the slaughter in an effort to cull the winter population by approximately 900 animals. The statistics come from an American conservation group called the Buffalo Field Campaign , which has traditionally been against the park's annual attempts at bison population control, pinning the behavior on outdated laws and pressure from the livestock industry.
