DESCRIPTION:The Buffalo Field Campaign (BFC) is a non-profit organization focused on 
 protecting America's last wild, free ranging, genetically pure buffalo 
 located in and around Yellowstone National Park. Although there are over 
 300,000 bison in the US only 15,000 are genetically pure. The rest have 
 cattle genes. Of these 15,000 pure buffalo the Yellowstone bison are unique 
 in that they have continually occupied their native range since the days 
 when North America was inhabited by more than 30 million 
 buffalo.\n\nMontana has a "zero tolerance" policy for buffalo entering the 
 state and has killed nearly 4,000 since 1985. The state blames the 
 slaughter on brucellosis, although there has never been a documented 
 transmission from wild bison to livestock. Ironically, the cows gave the 
 disease to many species of wildlife and now only the buffalo are 
 slaughtered. Elk have transmitted brucellosis disease to cattle yet elk are 
 not even mentioned in the management plan as a problem.\n\nWith our 
 country's infamous history of mass buffalo slaughter it is a bitter irony 
 that 130 years later we are allowing history to repeat itself. Native 
 American tribes have pleaded to take live YNP buffalo back to their 
 reservations. The request has fallen on deaf ears. In a single week in 
 March of 2003 the National Park Service slaughtered 231 buffalo from within 
 Yellowstone National Park. In the year 2004 the Park Service killed 267 
 inside Yellowstone.\n\n*September, 11 Monday w/ Good Shield\nStockton,
