  2. 🦬❄️ Staff at the Neal Smith National #Wildlife Refuge observed the birth of a white #bison calf among their resident herd.

    Geneticists estimate the probability of this occurrence is approximately one in 10 million. The rare coloration usually results from a recessive gene or a specific hereditary trait rather than albinism.

    The Bison are the canaries in the coal mines for the Native people. So yeah, when I see something bad happening to the Bison, I am alarmed for the Bison and the Native people.

  4. The Bison and Native people are intertwined.

    What happens to the Bison, happens to the Native people.
    What happens to the Native people, happens to the Bison.

    We were slaughtered together. We recovered together.

    “We should not have the federal government saying only cattle get affordable BLM leases. It is just so stupid the way they are doing this.

    It is DEI for cows.”

    Coalition tribes run bison on reservation land but plan to shift some of their growing herds to BLM grazing lands, which total about 155 million acres. Much of this land is threaded through and around large reservations. Tribes raise buffalo for spiritual, ecological and nutritional purposes...

    Particularly alarmed is the Coalition of Large Tribes (COLT), which manages 25,000 buffalo and represents more than 50 tribes, accounting for about 95 percent of Indian Country and half the Native American population in the U.S.

    “Interior’s proposed ruling would put a chokehold on us being able to increase our buffalo herds,” said OJ Semans Sr., executive director of the tribal coalition and a member of the Rosebud Sioux in South Dakota.

    DEI for Cows

    It is raising alarm and outrage from the Great Plains to California, where there are about half a million bison, many of which are raised for conservation and human consumption. Buffalo are grazing behind fences on scores of Indian reservations and on BLM allotments in Colorado, New Mexico, the Dakotas and elsewhere in Montana...

  8. WTF

    The Trump administration is planning to evict 950 bison from their grazing pastures on federal lands in Montana.

    An estimated 60 million bison once roamed the plains of North America before white settlers decimated the population. Bison were often hunted directly from trains after the construction of the American railroads in the 1800s.

    The slaughter eventually reduced the population to just a few hundred in the 1880s.

  11. Eye of the Bison

    I didn't know there were bison at Fota Wildlife Park, but near the end of my walk there with Henry we stopped at a field containing these large beasts! I wonder if they were overheating in their winter coats in the warm April sunshine, but I suspect the cold wind that blew through at intervals cooled them down. TIL that every European bison alive today descends from just twelve individuals. The species was hunted to extinction in the wild by the 1920s. The last truly wild one was shot in […]

  14. One year the elk shared the bison's huge pasture. I wish they did this with more animals that can easily co-exist.

  15. RE: wandering.shop/@adapalmer/1161

    The #European #bison #Bos #bonasus, prefers forests with open areas and was originally widespread throughout Central, Western, and Southern #Europe. #Herds consist of about 15 animals, with sexually mature males only seeking company during the #rutting season.The last originally #wildbison was #shot in 1927. Today's all descend from 12 captive individuals. Now, nine bisons were #released in the #Iberianhighlands to study how bisons can #restore #ecosystems.

  16. Here's a #Badlands #map and our itinerary...

    We entered the Park via the Northeast Entrance (extreme right on map) and spent most of our day slowly moving west, stopping frequently—sometimes to take photos, sometimes due to #bison migrating across the road. We ended up at the Sage Creek primitive #camping area (upper left).

  17. Today's next interesting iteration in #LLM shenanigans:
    Below #FOSS and #claudecode extension project is licensed as #AGPLv3 which, given what it claims to be, appears more than reasonable to me. It also has a commercial license available. So nothing new here.
    However, here's the fun part from the ReadMe: "No Closed-Source Usage: You cannot use this software in proprietary/closed-source projects without open-sourcing your entire project under AGPL-3.0."

    Do we now argue that this is more of an #IDE or more of your #bison/flex style code generator, just without the common generator exception.

    In a more extended round of arguments:

    • There is a now a growing FOSS scene around shared context (skills, agents, prompts, ...) components for your least distrusted coding LLM.
    • They are combined with the human instruction ("derivative work" has entered the chat) and turned into code by the LLM.
    • The FOSS components partially contain code snippets as examples of what to generate. At times similar but not identical or clearly derived variations of them end up in the output.
    • The Nov25 case around German #GEMA vs #OpenAI on song texts comes to mind here too.
    • Also, I'd argue that this is likely to have substantial future impact and probably will end up being enforced in a few cases here or there.

    Now what do we make of this? I would err more towards a) it's enforceable b) 🍿

  18. #GatherTheFilm - "Gather is an intimate portrait of the growing movement amongst #NativeAmericans to reclaim their spiritual, political and cultural identities through #FoodSovereignty, while battling the trauma of centuries of genocide.

    "Gather follows #NephiCraig, a chef from the #WhiteMountainApacheNation (#Arizona), opening an #IndigenousCafé as a nutritional recovery clinic; Elsie Dubray, a young scientist from the #CheyenneRiverSiouxNation (#SouthDakota), conducting landmark studies on #bison; and the #AncestralGuard, a group of #EnvironmentalActivists from the #YurokNation (Northern #California), trying to save the #KlamathRiver.

    Gather is coming to Netflix in the US on November 1, 2021! Gather is now available to stream on iTunes (US/UK/Canada), Amazon (US/UK) and Vimeo-on-Demand (rest of the world)."
