Deal on migrating Yellowstone bison close. Park herd would have safe passage through CUT ranch

My, but the bison hearing set in Washington for tomorrow is already having positive results in Montana. What a different a change in the control of a congressional committee can make! Is a bison solution finally in sight after 13 years of slaughter and confinement to the Park?

CUT just did a nice conservation easement deal with the Rocky Mnt Elk Foundation. There is real hope that CUT will be a good land steward in this critical area.
