Wildlife park nearly out of Yavapai Reservation


The Out of Africa Wildlife Park is nearly out of the Fort McDowell Yavapai Reservation in Arizona.

The park has removed all but 14 large animals from its facility. The tribe has given the park until July 30 to complete the move.

The park had told the tribe of its intentions to leave in 2002 but continued to expand until being issued an eviction order last month.
