Yellowstone: Why will 900 bison from the National Park be slaughtered?The weekly Chassons.com newsletter

The Yellowstone National Park is a world -known wild wildness area, with an area of around 9,000 km² which overlooks a volcanic geothermal site.It houses spectacular canyons, alpine rivers, lush forests, hot springs and geysers.He is also famous for his biodiversity.We easily meet bears, wolves, impulses, antelopes and a lot of bison ... Apparently too much!

While they were only a few tens at the beginning of the 20th century, more than 5,000 will work on the land of the National Park and their population is currently increasing from 10 to 17 % per year.The managers of fauna protection and tribal entities decided last week that up to 900 bison should be slaughtered by hunters or transferred to other reserves, or placed in quarantine before being taken to theslaughterhouse.

Despite the presence of wolves that recently made their return to the territory, this is not enough to reduce the number of these mammals significantly.Their size and weight allow them to easily defend themselves against predators.

This overpopulation of bison is harmful to other animals.Indeed, by dint of grazing the land, they cause famine in other species and transmit diseases in ruminants, hence this draconian decision of the national park.

Once again, the intervention of man but especially that of the hunter is essential for the good regulation of nature.We must stop saying or believing that the balance of nature only results from itself!
