Yellowstone is known for its geothermal activity and large mammals, especially elk, wolves, American bison, bears, pronghorns, moose and bighorn sheep. The Yellowstone Park bison herd was estimated in 2011 at approximately 3,700 individuals in two major sub-herds.[1] The bison in the Yellowstone Park bison herd are American bison of the Plains bison subspecies. so they all have to run anywhere, but they cannot come out of the park without a checkpoint or can they ? 3700 pieces is hard to hide, they can feel it. Special Bisonsense ;) so btw BI-SON |

Quoting: neocide Maybe its this crappy monitor. Anyone else notice this? Phew, so I am not the only one who thought it looked like the same two or three buffalo/bison over and over again. Man, am I getting cynical these days. Its the first thing I thought also. Texture of the animals seems too chromatic, shadows seem strange. Also why is there no shadow cast on the road from the snow poles? |

Special Bisonsense ;) so btw BI-SON There remain various questions and concerns regarding future management of the Yellowstone Park Bison Herd. Current US National Park Service policy is to let the herd take a natural course as much as possible, and no definitive attempt is made to control or eliminate disease, most notably brucellosis. This is analogous to the policy of the park service to let natural wildfires burn themselves out, except in areas where they cause a threat to structures or habitation. However, there are many people who advocate a vigorous attempt to eliminate brucellosis from the herd. This would require rounding all the animals up for vaccination and culling, or else a new form of vaccination would need to be developed that could be applied without capturing all the animals. In addition, even if brucellosis were eliminated from the herd, there is a question whether the bison herd might become re-infected from other potential natural sources, such as elk. Hunting is not allowed inside Yellowstone National Park but bison, wolves, elk and other animals that leave the park are not necessarily protected. There continues to be public controversy over the hunting of the animals in Montana when the bison leave the park. Some groups have proposed that all hunting must stop, but that is currently under the control of the State of Montana. The bison at Yellowstone National Park have become the foundation animals for many other bison herds throughout the United States, such as the Henry Mountains bison herd and (partially) the Wind Cave bison herd, and many groups in the United States and Canada are making efforts to return bison to much of their previous natural range. If there are large tracts of open range and natural habitat that become available for bison, then some private groups have actually purchased these lands and some lands are in the process of being prepared for bison introduction. Currently, some state and national parks have habitat for bison, but most of these already have bison present.[8][9][10] |

WHY? why are they running? they pay NO attention whatsoever to the oncoming car. they are SCARED. one question. is that mountain in the background Granite Peak, by any chance? if it is, that is where I roughly worked out a new caldera COULD erupt, based on the prior eruptions and movements of the hotspot. They were informed that have to enroll into obamacare. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 55833011 this is fucked up. if they weren't fleeing something, they'd have stayed on the scrubland feeding as they went. Some of the comments have been so cute! Others thought provoking. Not sure what's going on but we're all on pins and needles and even the slightest abnormality is magnified a 100 x over.

Is it a seasonal migration or is it a precursor?" More at: [link to revolutionaryfreedom.us] Were they the ones being shot at? Yellowstone National Park is asking for the public’s help in identifying who was responsible for illegally shooting and killing three bison inside the park last week. Park rangers determined the bison were likely shot between the evening of March 13 and morning of March15 alongside the road in the Blacktail Plateau area of northern Yellowstone [link to www.nps.gov] |
Epic Beard Guy User ID: 26240425 United States 03/20/2014 02:26 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Is this normal, because I sense its not. They are running and that was a shitload of Buffalo. Something not right about this... Quoting: Mukk1234 Not to rain on the doom parade, but I've only been to Yellowstone once in my life, in 1996, and I ran into a herd of bison on the road. Got a lot of really cool pictures. Bison are not stupid, they figured out a long time ago that the roads are the easiest way to get around the park. There are always bison in the road. There are also aways steam vents in yellowstone, it is one of the things people go there for. Look it up, it's a thermal feature of the park. These fear-mongers with their Yellowstone eruption phobias need to go there and see it. Or if you can't get there, try watching the seismic charts for a few years instead of a few days. I haven't been in a few years, but I recommend you see it every few years, it is different every time. Yellowstone will blow, some time in next hundred thousand years, but I'm not changing my plans because of it. Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst. "America is at that awkward stage.
