| | This helicopter is being used to haze bison in Yellowstone. This is inhumane. |

| | I want to make my voice heard to the Federal Aviation Administration and file a complaint about how an FAA-registered helicopter is being used by the Montana Department of Livestock to harass and harm members of America's last wild population of bison. The helicopter disrupts the entire ecosystem and all its inhabitants, including wild bison, grizzly bears, wolves, nesting birds such as Sand Hill cranes, bald and golden eagles, and white pelicans. Human residents on the western edge of Yellowstone National Park are also disturbed by the use of the helicopter, which flies extremely low through neighborhoods to scare up bison, hazing them towards Yellowstone. Yellowstone National Park has shamefully allowed the DOL's helicopter to intrude within the boundaries of the world's first national park |

| | Why is the DOL being allowed to haze poor bison with this helicopter; newborn bison have broken their legs trying to run and nesting birds and other animals are being disturbed. It flies low to human residences and this is uncalled for and UNNECESSARY! Please put an end to this inhumane treatment of bison and other wildlife. Thank you |
