My Nonprofit Reviews

I grew up in eastern Montana, attended U of Montana, and worked summers in Yellowstone as, of all things, a bellhop. The first live buffalo I ever saw were in Yellowstone; the reality was far beyond anything I'd read in novels or history: huge, powerful beings seeming to be peacefully at home. At the time, I believed the Park was focused on preserving and protecting buffalo as part of its mandate, and I was delighted to learn of the herd's existence. Only after I began receiving information from Buffalo Field Campaign many years later did I realize how tentative is this last free buffalo herd's existence and that I could help preserve these buffalo with letters and e-mails. Buffalo Field Campaign has made a huge difference in the herd's treatment and its hopes for survival; without BFC, this symbol of the West might no longer exist.
