Interior Secretary David Bernhardt, responding to a request from Wyoming's governor, ordered Grand Teton National Park officials not to use aerial gunners to cull non-native mountain goats from the park.
Wyoming officials don't oppose the removal of the goats from the park, where they pose a threat of transmitting disease to native bighorn sheep and competing for forage, but simply the method.
