Last Idaho Bison Killed? The Wildlife News Retracts, Apologizes

Wildlife news site The Wildlife News apologized and retracted a July 26 story claiming the state of Idaho killed a bison.

The Wildlife News also published a statement from The Nature Conservancy about the bison's killing that dismissed any claims that The Nature Conservancy was involved. A Google search indicates the original story, "The Nature Conservancy Allows Idaho's only buffalo to be killed," has been removed.

The Nature Conservancy identifies itself as "the leading conservation organization working around the world to protect ecologically important lands and waters for nature and people."
