And then tried to turn that into a "scientific paper" based on a whole bunch of unfounded and unverifiable assumptions.

It appears that attempts were made to format and organize the study; however, there are glaring holes in this "study".

By all accounts, it appears that an individual took a bunch of pictures of moose, became curious as to certain visible afflictions, proceeded to Google to for answers...

The study appears to rely heavily on photo documentation for individual identic disease an progression tracking, but does not include a summary table detailing photographic evidence, description of markings used to identify individual subjects, or describe limitations in identification methods.

The study suggests an environmental influence on immune response but does not explore potential confounding variables such as climate, diarrhea, or parasite load.

Some claims, such as immune response descriptions lack direct references... Particularly connections to established immunology research.

The study reports trends in age and gender distribution, but there is no statistical analysis.

The study suggests a novel strain of papillomavirus based on observational data, but without tissue samples or genetic analysis, this claim remains speculative.

How does the study (which they attempted to link) support their position, when it specifically doesn't mention which of the accounts were verified as having an affiliation?

Why do they claim to have been affiliated with a park but then provide a link that doesn't go anywhere?

Why did they change their bio?

Why are they pushing a block list with hundreds of accounts?

Why does so much of the history on individual things get hidden or deleted when questions are asked?

Why are individuals who ask sincere questions about things associated with a non-profit blocked and called trolls, moles, and infiltrators?

Why are there no filings or public reporting on earnings and expenses from the purported non-profit and the previous purported non-profits?

Why did they register in one state while stating that checks should be sent to an address in a completely different state?

How many different aliases do the have?

AltYello?
Ominous Ann?
Boston Max Tanks?
Boston Pyramid Builder?

Are there more?

How long have they been doing this?

Why does this account have so many GoFundMe campaigns?

Why have some of them been deleted?

How many different ways have they asked for money?

How many different purposes has the money been for?

How much have they actually received from others?

Any likeness, particularly with entities claiming to be a non-profit performing scientific research and attempting to raise funds for such purported works while attempting to file a trademark as an entity providing goods and services is merely coincidental.

We do not, nor have we ever provided goods or services, particularly those associated with recently filed and pending trademarks under 8868215.

We provide occasional social media postings for informational and entertainment purposes.

It's probably a good idea to not follow accounts that run GoFundMe campaigns.

As mentioned before, we will never sell or ask for money. We will continue this promise on our blog, once created, and will also not use advertisements.

We are the proud owners of AltYellowNatPark.org

And

AltYellowstoneNP.org

We are working on it part time, but will be establish blog to share science and climate information.

Just in case it isn't clear, we are not the Twitter/X account @/altyellonatpark.

We are not and do not claim to be them. See our profile and posts for who we are.

Or for "charities" or "non-profits" that are seemingly incapable of submitting required paperwork in a timely manner, or transparently showing how their money is used.

We think we can do better.

If you feel the same, stick around with us. We've got a lot to share!

.. used to act as a pretence of authority or to act as if we, or they, are something that are not.

And especially not to be used to gather tens of hundreds of thousands of dollars through GoFundMe...

We chose this account name because we believe it can and should stand for more.

We chose it because the BSKY handle was available.

And we chose it because we sincerely believe these accounts, #AltGov and #AltNPS accounts, shouldn't be...

We are here to share our love for the Parks and share information where we can.

We have no desire to engage with accounts that troll, spread hate, false information, or divisive rhetoric.

Morning folks.

Here's a pic from one of my recent visits to Rocky Mountain National Park.
