* Show your patriotism - Celebrate America's
BISON-tennial
Two hundred years ago, Lewis & Clark marveled at the tens of millions of wild buffalo roaming our American frontier. By the 1880s, all but 25 were exterminated.
Today, the descendents of those survivors compose the Yellowstone herd, the last wild and free-roaming bison the American people will ever know. But our great nation's enduring symbol of strength and freedom is still in peril!
Montana's Department of Livestock, to "protect" its cattle empire, persecutes, captures, and slaughters wild bison as they cross the national park boundary onto our adjacent public land - land belonging to all citizens. And American taxpayers fund this tragedy!
DO YOUR PATRIOTIC DUTY: STAND UP FOR THE AMERICAN BISON!
As we commemorate the Lewis and Clark bicentennial, please act on behalf of the American BISON-tennial! Contact your U.S. Representative and ask him/her to support H.R. 2428, the bi-partisan Yellowstone Buffalo Preservation Act, "to provide for the protection of the last remaining herd of wild and genetically-pure American buffalo."

...for making our work possible. Many of you have contacted your Congressional Representatives to urge their support of HR 2428 and it is making a difference. Others have written us letters of support, reminding us we are not alone. Some of you have sent donations, making it possible for us to carry on with our work for the buffalo. In whatever capacity you are involved, know that we are grateful for your help and that there would be no BFC without you.
Thank you Kathleen for dedicating your passion, talent, and energy to the buffalo. You are an inspiration.
