The American bison : the buffalo's survival tale
(Graphic Novel)

Includes bibliographical references (pages 121-122).

Against all odds! The prairie shakes under the hooves of nearly thirty million bison. As fast as a horse, as tall as a person, and heavier than both combined, they roam from coast to coast. A century later, people struggle to find a single one left alive. How did the great herds disappear, and what does it take to bring them back? Bison lived in balance with humans for centuries before technology, commerce, and politics upset their world. In the wake of colonialism and westward expansion, the mighty herds soon began to thin and disappear only through an alliance of unbowed Native cultures, sly opportunists, and the first conservationists can the bison be saved from the brink of extinction!"-- cover page 4.
