*** About American Bison: The American Bison, often simply called the bison, is a North American species of bison that once roamed the grasslands of North America in massive herds. Historically integral to the cultures and economies of Native American tribes, these majestic creatures were nearly driven to extinction in the 19th century due to extensive hunting and the destruction of their habitats. Conservation efforts over the years have successfully restored their populations in many areas, though they remain a symbol of the American West and are celebrated in art, literature, and conservationist efforts. Typically found in national parks and reserves, the bison is known for its significant physical presence and its role as a keystone species, helping to maintain the ecological balance of the grasslands.
