    Apparently  they had a calf this last breeding season, only a few off them, but it's good to see them allowed to roam semi free.

That's a good sign. It will take some time for them to get totally comfortable but then the numbers will take off. The Yellowstone herd is coming close to overpopulating the park. The Park Service had to cull the herd a few years ago and it's already back to the previous population. It's amazing what nature can do if we give it a little help and then leave it alone.

To continue this thread drift, NPS probably needs to introduce more predators to help manage the herd

Absolutely. The big success recently in the UK has been Beavers, and they've found out that they help the environment as long as they are well managed 

They are experts at flood control!

The wolves in Yellowstone made a huge change in the elk population which lead to a dramatic change in the overall habitat. They don't seem to be having much effect on the bison.

Having seen a bison at close range while trying to taxi a C172 at Catalina Airport I'm not surprised! 

Any self respecting wolf, no matter how hungry, would think 3-4 times before taking on something the size of a bison! Just the bison's eyes were massive!

The 120 mph Panther!   
It went so fast it threw a road wheel on one side.

thanks for putting words and a backing story on the "special feature" of the Panther kit I used

I couldn't resist!

It's the personal hunting vehicle of Chief Rolling Dice of the Betyalot Nation.
His son Black Jack Fleecemall drives while the chief takes pot shots at bison from the passenger window with a gold plated Sharps buffalo gun.
