    So, you're saying that since there are miles of untouched grasses, that the Bison are underpopulated relative to the regions ability to carry?

    If their numbers are finally high enough the bison will open up the forests by themselves and won't need to rely on preopened habitat any longer. Wild grazers are so important to maintain open areas for native meadows and the associated insects, birds etc.

    Was Bison Historically/Native to that place or places like it? I hope their isn't a concern about the land being to soft for the Bison weight. I like the idea of having places for Bison, but I just hope they are put in the Right places.

    American hunters do much of the hands on, get down and dirty, environmental work. Much respect. Quality Deer Management Association has a journal "Whitetail Journal" with great environmental projects and research. Whatever improves the environment for deer improves it for all parts of the ecology ... just as the bison do. Loved the flower covered head blinds!

  • @abrother9821
    @abrother98213 жыл бұрын

    Absolutely not! Unless a species is highly endangered or nearing extinction, protecting them from predation is extremely counter-productive. Wolves, grizzles, and other large-mammal predators will help cull the herd of older, weaker, and sickly animals. This is vital to the overall health of the herd. Conservators recognize and respect that thriving ecosystems naturally go through cycles where predator and prey experience population growth. The growth of one serves as a healthy counterpoint to the growth of the other. The right goal is balance.

    Great question! Yes, the collars get tighter as the bison grows. However, our researchers make sure to capture them and re-adjust the collar as needed. This is true for every study that involves collaring wildlife. Thank you for your support and please feel free to visit our blog First For Wildlife on Wordpress!

    Brian Fairey Yes. SCI Foundation assisted in bringing the bison to Alaska from Alberta. We helped by feeding them while in captivity, expanding and outfitting the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center, and finally transporting them by truck to the release site!
