The continuing CMR NWR – Bison Saga
Ranchers trying to eke out a
living in the Breaks on either side of
the Missouri River in northeastern
Montana have been in a continuous
battle with Washington politicians and
bureaucrats. It started in the 1930’s
when President Franklin Roosevelt
(FDR) and his cronies decided a dam
on the Missouri at the location of old
Fort Peck would be an ideal ‘make
work’ project. The area designated for
the reservoir just happened to contain
beautiful irrigated alfalfa fields that
provided abundant winter forage for
the area’s livestock and a cash crop for
the ranchers. The ranchers’ protests
and livelihoods were drowned out by
the rising waters. The government’s
unjust treatment of these land-owning
ranchers was thoroughly detailed by
Dr. John Lacey in the Winter 2019
Montana Magazine.
After a wildlife survey and the
usual lobbying in Washington D.C.,
FDR issued an Executive Order in
1936 establishing the 700,000-acre
Fort Peck Game Range around the
Fort Peck Reservoir. The order
stated the Game Range was, “for the
conservation and development of
natural wildlife resources and for the
protection and improvement of public
grazing lands and natural forage
resources”. Management of the Game
Range was under the joint jurisdiction
of the Secretaries of Interior and
Agriculture. The Secretary of the
Interior implemented the provisions
of the 1934 Taylor Grazing Act that
established grazing districts and gave
the allotment-holding ranchers a
right for their livestock to access the
available forage on the Game Range.
Most ranchers did not oppose the
formation of the Game Range, because
they believed they were promised a
right to continue grazing there. The
federal bureaucrats and politicians
did not live up to their promises.
It took several years of Executive
Orders, passage of Congressional
Acts, and many losing lawsuits before
the right to graze the Game Range
was changed to a privilege to graze
on the renamed Wildlife Refuge that
could be taken away at any time for
any reason. The result has been a
94% reduction in AUMs (Animal
Unit Months, a measure of grazed
forage). The history of the Charles
M. Russell National Wildlife Refuge
(CMR NWR) management has
not been kind to the hard-working
neighboring ranchers, and it doesn’t
seem to be getting any better.
In 2007, the World Wildlife
Fund (WWF) published Ocean of
Grass: A Conservation Assessment of
the Northern Great Plains. In it, they
identified several key areas, including
Phillips and Valley Counties, to start
the rewilding process. The WWF then
founded a ‘land trust partner’ called
the American Prairie Foundation/
Reserve (APR). This entity stated
their goal was to establish a 10,000
head wild and free-ranging bison
herd on 3.5 million contiguous acres
in NE Montana. Their plan included
the CMR NWR acreage. After the
APR’s initial successes with several
landowners, ignoring their neighbors
and community, willingly selling to
them and a compliant Malta Bureau of
Land Management (BLM) office that
gave them everything they wanted,
they ran into considerable resistance.
When the APR realized their
attempt to change all of their federal
grazing permits into no-interior-
fences, year-round-grazing bison
pastures was facing major opposition,
they resubmitted a much-reduced
application to the BLM and have tried
to polish their tarnished image in the
surrounding communities.
At the same time, Montana
Fish, Wildlife and Parks (MFWP),
under Director Martha Williams,
was pursuing its goal to introduce
wild, free-ranging bison somewhere
in Montana. Apparently, Director
Williams and Governor Bullock
secretly met with the APR concerning
bison reintroduction. The position
of the CMR NWR concerning bison
reintroductions was spelled out in
their 2012 Final Report, which stated
the US Fish and Wildlife Service
(USFWS) has, “taken the position
that it will not consider reintroducing
wild bison on the refuge unless
MFWP initiates an effort to restore
wild bison.”
In 2020, a very detailed proposal
titled “To Restore Public, Wild Bison
on the Charles M. Russell National
Wildlife Refuge” was submitted by
the Montana Wild Bison Restoration
Coalition. In the first place, their title
is wrong, since they are not planning
to release bison on the CMR NWR,
but on the UL Bend NWR. In the
plan, the adjacent APR ranch was to
be the source of the bison. The worst
part of this proposal was that they
were not planning to fence the bison
from the Missouri River. Garfield
County, here we come! Apparently,
they were trying to fast-track this
plan while Bullock was still in office.
Fortunately, they were not successful,
and the Gianforte administration has
shelved this proposal.
But hold the phone!
In 2021, the CMR shifted gears
and took the lead by hiring the services
of a University of Montana professor
to conduct surveys concerning
‘stakeholder’ opinions about
reintroducing bison and bighorn
sheep on the refuge. Do you think
their timing had anything to do with
the nomination and confirmation of
ex-MFWP Director Martha Williams
to head the USFWF? Probably just a
coincidence!
 At the last CMR Community Working Group
meeting, the refuge manager informed us that two surveys
were being conducted, one tribal and one non-tribal. He
also told us that he had selected the names of all the survey
participants, and the refuge had no plans or proposals for
reintroductions in mind.
We all know how the tribes will vote, and the CMR
knows what the ‘stakeholders’ around the Refuge think of
wild bison, because of all the ordinances opposing them
that overwhelmingly passed (plus a random, statistically
significant survey conducted in Valley County that showed
only 6% of the county wanting wild bison with 79%
opposed). Obviously, the real reason for the surveys is to
over-ride the opinion of the resident population. It should
also be pointed out that the value of the surveys is tainted
because the participants were not randomly selected. The
reason for randomization in surveys is to eliminate this
major source of bias. And lastly, it is a stretch to claim the
elaborate, well-written proposal to release bison on the UL
Bend NWR is not still front and center on the table. The
adjacent residents realize the purpose of this questionable
exercise is to ram these bison down their throats in the
same way Montana got wolves. Time will tell if the local
ordinances and Montana laws will prevail or whether the
federal bureaucrats and NGO’s will succeed with their
locally destructive program.
