We got a report of an injured yearling bull bison yesterday morning...
I went out with Amy, one of our biologists, to find and observe him.
I marked him with a paintball gun so we can keep a better eye on him -
all sorts of wildlife health issues come up here, and with the marker
we'll be better able to track whether this particular animal improves
or deteriorates. The bison here are managed as wildlife, so we
generally try to avoid intervening with situations that are normal in
the wild. This guy's broken foot falls in that category, but we'll
keep an eye on him...
