*** About American Bison:

***American Bison, often commonly referred to as buffalo, have played a central role in North America's ecological and cultural history. Once roaming the continent in vast herds, their numbers dramatically declined in the 19th century due to excessive hunting and habitat loss. Conservation efforts over the years have helped to stabilize their populations. Bison are not just symbolically significant; they also influence their ecosystems by grazing, which helps maintain the health of grasslands. They're typically found in herds, and display fascinating herd dynamics led by a dominant female. The nurturing relationship between a mother bison and her calf can last for several years, contributing to the calf's survival and learning essential life skills.
