***About Bison

***: Commonly known as American buffalo, bison are large, even-toed ungulates found primarily in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Historically roaming the grasslands in massive herds, their existence crucially influences the ecology of the grasslands. Bison play a critical role in maintaining the health of grassland ecosystems by grazing, which helps stimulate plant growth. Their numbers, once drastically reduced in the 19th century due to excessive hunting, have recovered somewhat due to conservation efforts, though they are no longer in the vast numbers that once dominated the Plains.
