Culling buffalo herds is not uncommon. Other parks like Theodore Roosevelt National Park in North Dakota have a hunt that is available to the public.

Big time problem. Rancher have complained for years that the winter migrations are killing their range herds and the BLM has thumbed their nose,, now they have flipped..
Me thinks there are other problems not stated??
It might be worded to get the tree-huggers & PITA in a tizzy, then have berry come to the rescue and stop it.
They need a permitted culling season EVERY YEAR, to keep the herds at sustainable levels,, same goes for the Mule Deer & Elk..
