We have 10 very enthusiastic and energetic activists from around the U.S. who are out with the buffalo everyday from sunrise to sunset. Before they stepped out of their trucks, two Buffalo Nations shepherds were asking them who they where and what they were doing there. Needless to say, very little was debated and after some quick photos of our buffalo shepherds, the DOL employees took off.
Local support is tremendous.
We get encouraging phone calls everyday from locals that want to help in anyway they can. It also gives us areas toward which we can shepherd bison to safety. About eight big bull buffalo have been travelling in and out of the Park daily. The snow is here, and with it comes more buffalo. The DOL could be here to kill buffalo any day, and we will be here waiting.
