Yellowstone was even worse. He and his friends called it “the iron curtain” because of all the rules in the park—which fish you could keep, which you had to release, which lures you could use, what kind of hook—and the zeal with which they were enforced. It was against the rules even to drive through the park with harvested game in the back of your truck, unless it was covered. Visitors didn’t want to see dead elk.
reinforces unequal enforcement in different parts of the country by fish and wildlife based on the “importance” (historical or ecological) of certain lands which implies inequity in park funding based on attendance instead of climate purposes
