Jackson Hole, Wyo.-A one-hour special about conflicts surrounding Yellowstone bison, government wildlife officials and the activist group the Buffalo Field Campaign will air Saturday.
The show, called “Buffalo Battle,” follows Field Campaign volunteers and state and federal officials as each group wrestles with controversial bison management. “Buffalo Battle” also, according to a press release, seeks balance by including interviews with livestock farmers and others on the opposite end of controversy surrounding bison, thousands of which have been slaughtered over fears about mingling with livestock when they have left the protection of Yellowstone.
The show is a pilot for a possible new series and was directed and produced by filmmaker Matthew Testa, a former Jackson Hole resident.
“Buffalo Battle” will air at 10 p.m. Saturday on Planet Green, found on Bresnan cable at channel 201, or for DIRECTV subscribers, channel 286. JHW
