"Take Montana’s cattle industry, for example, whining about the supposed threat of brucellosis being passed to their sacred cows by Yellowstone Park buffalo. What a crock o’ hooey. Everyone knows that, even if the disease COULD be transmitted to cattle (which has never been proven in the wild), it could only be passed by adult female buffalo because of the nature of the virus. Yet the Department of Livestock (aka “God”) has seen fit over the years to slaughter hundreds of bull buffalo and calves as well. Has anyone ever asked the buffalo’s opinion?"
