Publisher Description: The National Bison Range protects a living legacy -- the American bison. Hundreds of bison, also called buffalo, are home on the range, along with elk, deer, pronghorn antelope, bighorn sheep, and many other animals. This book tells the story of bison: how bison live, the bison cultures of Native Americans, the near extermination and recovery of bison, how the National Bison Range was created, and even the life of Big Medicine, the sacred white buffalo that was born here. Donald M. Jones's gorgeous photography highlights the range's beauty and wildlife. Every color photo in this book was taken on the National Bison Range. |
