Nation Park Service is looking for Bison hunters at the Grand Canyon

The National Park Service at the Grand Canyon is planning for their first controlled bison hunt to reduce the House Rock bison herd by more than half. Problem is they are finding ecological impacts with deforestation and water pollution. Rnagers have take photos of roughly 600 bison currently in the herd and if left to mother nature they would likely increase to as much as 1,500 in the next 10 years.

A pool of 25 qualified applicants will be selected and then 12 people will be chosen by random lottery to participate in the hunt. The application process closed this week after the Park service received over 45,000 applications! Get more info here
