Take
Action! Contact Decision Makers:
Buffalo Field Campaign encourages you to contact decision makers
to let them know how you feel about the lack of accountability
and the broken promises made in the taxpayer funded Royal Teton
Ranch land deal to provide a "safe haven for the bison."
Senator Max Baucus was instrumental in securing $13,000,000
in funding to acquire and conserve wildlife habitat on the Royal
Teton Ranch in the Gardner Basin, critical winter range for
migrating bison.
U.S. Representative Nick J. Rahall, II and U.S. Representative
Maurice Hinchey requested the Government Accountability Office
investigate and report on the Interagency Bison Management Plan
to Congress. Released in April 2008, the GAO's report will play
an important role in directing Congressional legislation to
help protect America's last wild bison herd and their native
habitat, and is available online: http://www.gao.gov/docsearch/abstract.php?rptno=GAO-08-291
