Description
A Bison boat stands proudly on the Great Plains. Recent snowfall covered the landscape in white as it also did to the Bison's back and head. These massive animals were hunted to the brink of extinction in the 1700s and 1800s with as few as 750 reported by 1890. Their numbers have since rebounded with about 500,000 now living on public and private lands. Native Americans call them Tatanka, a Lokota word that translated literally means "bull buffalo." Taken at the Rocky Mountain Arsenal National Wildlife Refuge near Denver, Colorado.
