A Montana judge has blocked the relocation of bison from the park to places that were once their home range. Do what!? This is in response to ranchers who are saying that bison destroy their fences and eat hay meant for their cattle. Cattle, destructive beasts that they are, are taking precedent over the iconic bison? I don't understand why people are objecting to allowing bison to be moved and reintroduced into their native land. Instead they are going to be kept in fences? The bison was once a symbol of the great American west and the wilderness available there. It was slaughtered to near extinction. Why don't they just put a couple in a zoo and be happy, there's not much difference between a cage and a fence.
