Elk
Video 3/08
Is Elk Slaughter Next?
If the Montana Stockgrowers Get Their Way.
Buffalo Field Campaign obtained this video footage from
the Wyoming Department of Game and Fish, who, under
pressure from Wyoming livestock producers, is running
a so-called "pilot project" to capture and
slaughter elk in the Pinedale area. During the first
week of February, the agency captured more than 500
elk at the Fall Creek
and Muddy Creek feed grounds.

Video
from the Field 3/18/08
922 bison have been killed with your tax dollars this
year using the Stephens Creek bison trap located inside
Yellowstone National Park. 223 bison are still in the
prison awaiting their fate. This footage was provided
by the Park Service. We hope it will outrage you enough
to call the Park and remind them that they are the caretakers
of our national treasures, not Montana's Livestock interests. |

The day after the bipod protest came down, Montana Department
of Livestock showed their true colors. Not a cow within
40 miles, not a cow to ever return to Horse Butte but
not an ounce of tolerance from the Great State of Montana. |
