Monday, August 12, 2019. I have seen the whole video and I loved it. I love those majestic animals that almost were exterminated during the past 2 centuries. But now I hope that these animals will regain back their place in what they used to roam around by the millions. Thanks to the persons that made possible this wonderful video. Thanks again!!!

Dream on. Not happening here in the states. That part of our various politicians not already controlled by big money on Wall Street , are controlled by energy lobbyists and to a lesser extent agriculture to include ranching. Nothing wrong with those necessary parts of our economy so don't misunderstand where I'm coming from. But I know our politicians in both parties.

A very good and informative program. I grew up on a Farm/Ranch on the Easter Plains of Colorado. My Maternal Grandfather homesteaded in Western Kansas. My Dad's family came to the area shortly after the Civil War although for the most part they were not Farmers or ranchers. Buffalo trails were still evident in the Buffalo Grass pastures that had not been tilled. One of these trails was still evident where it crossed our property. The top of the flat plateau had a depression about 3 foot deeper and 20 feet wide where Buffalo had worn down the soil 80 to 150 years earlier. This was truly a clash of civilizations. The elimination of the Buffalo/Bison was not only pure greed but an attempt at Genocide of the Native American population. I had to laugh when I heard the Wyoming Bison rancher talk about having 2,000 acres stocked with Buffalo. It is going to take hundreds of thousands of acreas to bring back Bison in significant numbers. Ted Turner has one of the largest Ranches in the country in Nebraska. He does have some Bison but to bring the herds back like they were in the 17th century is not possible. Bison WERE migratory, similar to migratory birds. Migratory Birdes had WINGS. Until Buffalo grow wings they will NEVER exist in the numbers there once were. UNLESS the dominant species (US) goes extinct.

As central American( Nicaragua) i love to see this kind of videos., it shows how people are trying to fix what went wrong in the past, I also saw another video of a project in northern Mexico in Chihuahua to be more specific trying to bring Bison back to that area where is used to roam free but was also decimated, they started with 23 animals that came from a conservation ranch in Wyoming 10 yrs ago now they have around 130. I like the big effort a lot of ranchers are doing to bring this species back to its old habitat!!

The West has kind of this thing about identifying with the bison, mainly, I think, because it's the last part of the country with big open spaces left. It wasn't always this way. You could once find woodland buffalo in the East, but not in the extreme numbers of the prairie. The great eastern woodlands broke into savannah and long grass prairie about the longitude of Illinois. The Illinois State seal still features a buffalo above the words " The Prairie State". When I was a kid there, you could still find quite a lot of the old prairie in the corners of fields, around small woodlands and streams, and in some places acres of it. As a country boy growing up I spent a lot of time in it ( it's where I got most of my fishing bait:). The grass could get 6 feet tall and there were hundreds of species. Walk ten feet into the grass and it was like standing in a corn field, incredibly abundant. With the exception of bison, elk and puma ( which was before my time), all other species were represented there, not to mention hundreds of bird types. Unfortunatly the long grass prairie is almost extinct due to modern farming practices. There are still small protected areas scatted about, and if you ever get a chance to visit one, you will be amazed at what a third of North America used to look like before the plow. As a side note...there is a reason some of the largest pre Columbian cities in North America, were in Illinois.

It's such a crying shame governments don't put as much importance in sustainability of all indigenous, four legged ones and two... Could have learned alot about their survival and traditions before the Europeans took over...istead of working together, governments take a heavy hand, with that, not alot has changed unfortunately. ..

There are bison preserves in much of the country. There’s a herd of bison and wild horses at Payne’s Prairie State Park outside of Gainesville, Florida. North Florida is considered the southernmost extent of where bison once ranged naturally. It amazes me how adaptable and vast bison are as animals to have once range from the high country of the Rockies all the way to subtropical North Florida.

Great educational film. I always thought the army had paid for the buffalo hunters to wipe out the herds as a way to starve the Indians. I did not know the diseases from cows going north killed more than hunters. It was still a result of the white man, but maybe not intentional. Its hard to talk about the bison with out talking about the Indians. I am glad to see the bison coming back. Even it is slow, I personally like the wild game more than beef. If I want fat flavor in the meat I can add sausage to it as I do deer for burgers. I saw the meat being processed and sold, but have not seen a market for it here in Texas. Doesn't mean its not here, I just haven't seen it. Today I learned the roast beef I was buying has 500 mg of sodium per 4 slices. Wild meat don't have all that or steroids. I will see what I can find on the market for bison. Thank all of you who have a hand in bringing them back. I have done nothing to help, if I can in some way, I would be honored to help.

I wish this was how we managed cattle and all animals, we use for consumption. I'm not a vegan or vegetarian. But, I think consumers need to change their meat eating habits. I'm not going to suggest boycotting fast food. Because they provide jobs. But, I believe we should reduce how often we eat at fast food and chain restaurants. The next step is for local stores to sell locally produced meats. My fiance and I made a choice a while back, to buy all our meats from a small local store in our town. It''s a small store. But, it is quality meat, that's raised less then 2hrs drive from where we live. So, we know the families who raise the cattle and we know the local people who work at the market. I believe the biggest factor is young people are intimidated by cooking. Let's be fare though. Many people have been intimidated by cooking. Many just didn't have anyone to show them. What young people today need, are simple recipes and they need it in away that interest them. It also has to appeal to their budget. You may not know this. But, two gaming companies put out cook books with in the last two years. Suddenly, I am watching young men and women, trying out recipes and cooking for their families. People resist when you preach them down. They are motivated when it is interesting, approachable, they see their peers doing it and it is fun.

It was enjoyable watching that big bull in Yellowstone(?) I presume, having a GOOD wallow, and he looked mighty proud with himself, when he finished! He must have felt so much better after his wallow, too.

I known people who had beefaloe and they live longer and birth better and for longer than regular cattle. Using rare beeeds like RANDALL cattle with unique genetics have been used to help against disease and a healthier bovine. So using bison to and hardier genetics should be encouraged to help cattle farmers have healthier more productive heards and product for consumers. If you ever get a chance to eat some bison stake please do , i use a rub and balsamic vinegar and virgin olive oil, broil it at 400° quater pound one inch thick for about 45 minutes to a hour depending on how you like your stake, bison tends to be a bit leaner and bloodier! But soooo good !

I think as long as they do grass finished bison and don't put them on CAFOs, they will keep the interest of the paleo crowd and the heart smart crowd. I think that will stay with the interest of the guy who is worried about the commodification of them. There is a method of intense grazing spelled out in "Omnivore's Dilema" that would work great for this.

After viewing I find the statements of the demise of bison very misleading by not mentioning General Sherman's policy of slaughtering the bison. Tell the truth.

The Frontier Army were intrinsic in the destruction of Buffalo herds. In fact the War Department's strategic policy against Indians from 1865 to 1903 acknowledges that "Sheridan and Sherman recognized that eliminating the buffalo might be the best way to force Indians to change their nomadic habits." The rest is history.

It would appear that history is ever changing by different information found or spread. For years it was pushed that the "white man" was the cause of the bison going nearly extinct. If one does plenty of research you'll see that the 30-60 million bison roaming the plains was around a thousand years ago. Over time droughts as well as over population lowered that number to around 10 million by the time of Lewis and Clark. Yes it is true Sherman did order the killing of the bison to subdue the American Indians but look at that time line and you'll see it's well into the last part of the 19th century. The Civil war was 1861-1865, Custer was killed in 1876 and it was then that Sherman was intent on subduing the American Indians of the west. So the film is correct in stating the cattle drives helped decimate the bison as the cattle drives started right after the Civil War as that's when the herds got so big and wild because so many farmers were fighting the war and let their cattle out. The dynamics of the depletion is far more than what most people know and a thorough research is the best way to get answers, unfortunately people believe everything their teachers taught them or a program they saw on tv. As I said research will get one better information but people generally don't like to do it.

Mark Lumley I would like to not believe you but you make a lot of sense and sound quite humble and honest. You convinced me sir. Also it is true not all information in a well presented program produced by a well known production company is true. Sometimes it’s false by honest mistakes, and sometimes it’s by design to further enhance the drama of the historical events for ratings.

Bison, wolves, bears all are native to the prairies. Man tried to get rid of them. We need them. I'm White and would love to see the land get back to normal. Cattle don't belong here, bison do. But now with cars and all the movement would need to be managed. Around Banff they have bridges that the animals can use to cross the road safely.

Don't know where my local stores get their buffalo from. We do have relatively small farms/ranches here in western NY. The thing that keeps me from buying more of it is the price. As for cooking it: no issues. Do it lightly and fast, no need to cook it to death or it turns tso shoe leather. Would also like to see more than just ground buffalo or small cuts of skirt steaks.

YUP! to me the Bison is the last living testament to the old west. i wasn't aware that there were any pure genetic bison still around. all the mixing with cattle, the almost extinction of the ''buffalo to try and starve the american indian population"" YUP! to me the bison is the most majestic, knarley, beautiful on the plains. of course the antelope, mule deer, white tail i guess what i am trying to say is the west is gorgeous with wide open space, and beautiful wildlife. thank you for saving and working WITH the BISON.
