Birth Control for Bison

Overrun by a rapidly expanding bison herds, California's Catalina Island is taking a revolutionary approach to population control: Bovine birth control. Whereas traditional methods for reducing overpopulated herds have including controlled hunting, killing, or shipping strategies, Catalina Island Conservancy—a nonprofit that owns 88 percent of the island—is pioneering a non-hormonal birth control shot for female bison. "Males will continue to compete for females, and females will continue to go into heat. The only difference is that we can control how many calves they have," explains the conservancy's chief. "For bison in love, this means romance without responsibilities." For the sake of eco-sustainability, the conservancy aims to quell the herd's current annual growth rate of 15 percent.

OK so we have hungry homeless people in CA. Killing the bison would feed many of them a good meal. letting people hunt them would bring money into the Broke ass state. California's plan is to give birth control to the bison? This is hands down the dumbest idea i have ever heard. keep this is mind this is utopia for are liberal friends here ? the homeland for hippies. Send all the liberals then Give that state to Mexico and call it a day. DUMB. DUMB. DUMB!!!!!!

Bison meat is GOOD.

My local Kroger's grocery store sells it for about 5 dollars a pound.

When I make my meatloaf, I use a pound of hamburger, a pound of bison, and a pound of sausage. MMMMMMM...

CA better hope Sarah Palin doesn't hear about this. If she does, she'll be on the first plane to CA to teach those Bovines a thing or two about abstinence.
