Update from the Field 2/10/05 It is a sad day for all Americans when there are only 4000 of the worlds pure genetic free roaming buffalo and they are treated as a pariah that have to be removed or exterminated for the protection of cattle that populate the entire planet. Buffalo calves and yearlings - ages 4 to 24 months - will be subjected to injections of RB51, a brucellosis vaccine that was designed for use in livestock, and is not 100% effective on either cattle or wild buffalo. The DOL claims that vaccinating wild buffalo (with an ineffective vaccine, mind you) will help "reduce the prevalence of brucellosis within the bison herd and to reduce the risk of transmission of brucellosis from bison to cattle." To date there has never been a documented case of a wild buffalo transmitting brucellosis to cattle. www.tinyurl.com /5kanj   (1337 words)
