Montana Gov Allows Bison to be Transferred to Reservations

Montana Governor, Brian Schweitzer stated on Monday that he will not block the relocation of 68 bison to two Native American Reservations. This reverses a previous stance that the bison could not be removed from Yellowstone National Park for fear they may harbor Brucellosis. However the Interior Department indicated that they do not believe the animals are infected.
