The Park Service wants American taxpayers to pick up the $9 million tab to pay for a 30-year program that treats wildlife like cattle, using a vaccine approved for domestic cattle not wild buffalo.
Yellowstone National Park recently released a lengthy Draft Environmental Impact Statement to open the way for the Park to shoot wild buffalo with an ineffective, unapproved and harmful livestock brucellosis vaccine (SRB51).
Vaccinating wild buffalo is an ill-conceived, harmful, costly and wasteful plan by Yellowstone National Park that jeopardizes America's last wild buffalo.
Tell the Park Service to stop wasting taxpayers money and protect the wild bison.
