Paul Nlemeyer, President of the Sevier Wildlife Federation, one of the largest affiliate clubs of the Utah Wildlife Federation said, "As an organization formed by people with a common interest in wildlife and wildlife habitat, we are very supportive These bison (erroneously called buffalo) range freely in the Henry Mountains area in Utah, one of these types of projects that of the few areas in the world where bison live in a natural state.
