WHY ARE THE BISON MOVING OUT OF YELLOWSTONE?

YELLOWSTONE BISON MOVE THROUGH THE SNOW

There have been reports that the fact that the bison are moving out of Yellowstone is yet another indication that the Supervolcano is getting ready to blow.

According to Yellowstone National Park spokesman Al Nash this is not the case.  In fact he has posted  a video on You Tube entitled "Rumor Control" which explains the earthquake and the current animal migration outside the Park.

According to Nash"We do have bison, elk and other animals that have moved outside the park recently, but they're doing that because it's the depth of winter and food is hard to find in places in Yellowstone.  They tend to migrate at this time of the winter outside the park to lower elevations where they think there might be something to eat that is easier to get at."

Those of us who live here year around know that the bison migrate out of the park to Horse Butte which is a few miles north of West Yellowstone.  Horse Butte is probably where the first baby bison or the year will be born.  This is a natural phenomenon - it occurs at this time every spring.
