The Comeback Kids--Book 10--The American Bison

Meer over het boek

The book explores the American bison's dramatic history, from its near extinction due to 19th-century hunting and disease to its recent resurgence in national parks like Yellowstone. It highlights the complex relationship between humans and bison, noting that while they are being raised for consumption due to their nutritional benefits, many have been crossbred with domestic cattle. Despite the challenges, the survival of a small population of pure bison serves as a testament to conservation efforts, celebrating these animals as resilient survivors.
