Return of the Bison

[Catherine]

That is good news about the wood buffalo.  Canada has had herds of wood buffalo for years. They are wild, but in protected areas of northern Saskatchewan and Alberta.

I would think they are talking about plains bison, but I couldn't find a direct reference. I know that is the species that was almost wiped out.

Manitoba has a herd of plains bison in Riding Mountain National Park. I saw them as a child, but I just checked the web site and the herd is still there.

If you follow the link to the page about the bison it gives a detailed history of the herd.

Windows 10 is not letting me give a direct link to the page I want about the bison.
