Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Bison, also known as American Buffalo, may be North America's largest indigenous land animal, but that doesn't mean they're invincible. In this volume, students will learn all about bison, why they were overhunted, the conservationist efforts that saved them from disappearing forever, and how all of this shaped history.
