Our patrol found him feeding in a meadow on the south side of the Madison about a mile from the Park. We kept our distance so as not to disturb him. He had been hazed and shot at with cracker barrel guns by the Montana Department of Livestock earlier in the week. He needed no more human presence. Spirits are high at the campaign.
Volunteers form all over the USA dedicate their time to the bison's safety.
After three years the campaign has become highly professional and organized. The office now has it's own cabin leaving a whole room in the lodge for more bunks and of course foosball. Five teepees dot the horizon, a place for the more permanent folks to have some privacy. Seeds of Peace an organization that cooks for activist campaigns has even expanded the kitchen. The campaign host greets new volunteers upon arrival shows you the ropes, gets you signed in, and finds you a place to sleep.
