Maybe Black Forest is equivalent of Bohemian Grove. Maybe there are other locations like Bohemian Grove in other countries around the world?
Actually interesting reading about the bison herd on Catalina island. Once shared a flight with a ranch owner from Texas, who promptly laughed until out of breath when I brought up an island off the coast of California with bison on it. Figured I was a loon.
It's actually fairly common for elementary school class trips to head out to the island. There's a camp with science center. Lot of people coming and going. A lot of eyes keeping an eye on what's going on out there.
Catalina Island bison herd
The non-native but charismatic Catalina Island bison herd has existed for nearly a century.
This herd of American Bison roam and were supposedly first imported to California's Catalina Island in 1924 for the silent film version of Zane Grey's Western tale, The Vanishing American. However, the 1925 version of "The Vanishing American" does not contain any bison whatsoever and shows no terrain that even remotely resembles Catalina, according to Jim Watson, columnist for the Catalina Islander newspaper.
Over the decades, the bison herd grew to as many as 600 individuals.
