*********************************************************************
Thanks for continuing to care about the buffalo and receive these updates.
We experienced a computer snafoo (meltdown) earlier in the month, I believe
a few addresses were lost as well as a few requests for address changes.
If you receive this in error, receive duplicates or this has been sent to
you as a forward not a original...Thank you for your patience! Just send
me a quick note and I will fix the matter. We will be switching over to a
listserve very soon ~GRIN~ which will make my work easier.
As the following alert states; we are not in the clear yet this winter.
Buffalo Nations will continue to work for the buffalo year round again with
its summer educational campaign in the park and of course being with the
buffalo next winter.
It is still vital to the success of this campaign to get the word out to
more folks. So please, in honour of the buffalo or earth day or whatever
occassion you want, consider passing this on to 7 more folks.
If you receive this as a forward: please consider subscribing to this
mailing list of about 2 updates a month.
Thanks for all your continued support; donations and volunteers are still
needed.
Thanks!

BUFFALO NATIONS NEEDS YOUR HELP!!!
OVER 50 MORE BUFFALO OUT OF THE PARK TODAY
Just when we thought Spring was here and the buffalo were headed back to
the park, what do you know, more than 50 came out of the park today in all
different areas!! Spring snow storms may be the cause of this exodus at
such a late date.
Buffalo Nations needs your help. NOW! The D.O.L. knows about all of them
and they are certainly in town. Our conversations with them (yes, we've
been chatting) leave us with little knowledge, only educated guesses, about
what they're planning.
This is an extremely critical time! Many of the buffalo are females and
calves and are considered high risk (at least the females) by the D.O.L.
Therefore, who knows?! Will they shoot, will they haze, will they what????
Buffalo Nations has immediate need for people to monitor both the D.O.L.
and the buffalo, and if possible haze them back into the safety of the
park. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE if you can spare any time at all we need your
help. We have limited number of people to cover all the areas they are
going to. We need at least 25 people per day to protect these beautiful
buffalo.
Hopefully, this is only temporary and the buffalo will be going back to the
park on their own accord, but we cannot risk leaving them unprotected.
Please joins us soon. And spread the word.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE : April 13, 1998
Media Contact : Michael Mease, (406)646-0070
"The truth of what the Montana Department of Livestock is doing to
the buffalo can not be withheld from the public," Michael Mease, Buffalo
Nations co-founder, said after learning charges against him were dropped.
"The police can not allow one journalist access and deny another, and
justice has prevailed."
The charge of obstructing a peace officer stemmed from a January
29th incident in which Mease entered the dump to document the slaughtering
of six bison that had been shot on Horse Butte, near West Yellowstone,
Montana. Mease was arrested for not leaving the premises even though he
is a working press photographer and had permission to be there from the
owner of the dump at that time.
The charge against Mease was dismissed on April 8.
"The selective oppression placed on the buffalo is also being
placed on the members of Buffalo Nations. As I was released so shall the
buffalo, and we will be here until it happens," Mease said.
Buffalo Nations is an organization of volunteers working in West
Yellowstone and Gardiner, MT to stop the slaughter of wild buffalo when
they migrate outside Yellowstone National Park.
