Judge blocks federal order to remove 900 bison from Montana public lands
Reported byOutside ↗·Sourced by Goodlede
A federal judge blocked the Bureau of Land Management's order to remove nearly 1,000 bison from American Prairie in Montana, ruling that conservation grazing is a valid use of public land under the Taylor Grazing Act, overturning the BLM's reinterpretation that limited permits to "production-oriented" livestock only.
The ruling blocks the removal order while the lawsuit proceeds; it is not a final resolution of the dispute.
