Bison Field Trip to Wind River Reservation
An incredible two day event for supporters of the Tribal Bison Program to experience the majesty of bison in their new home at the Wind River Reservation as well as to learn more about the vison of the program as we move forward. Bison are keystone species to the health of the American prairie ecosystem, as well as to the cultural, physical and economic health of Native American communities. NWF has been working with tribal and federal partners for over 20 years to return bison to the Wind River Reservation, which overs over 750,000 acres of prime bison habitat, over 550,000 more acres that what is currently available to bison in Yellowstone.
