Bison


There used to be millions of buffalo in North America. At one time there were essentially none left in Canada. Now there are a few small "wild" herds including one in a paddock at the front of Waterton and some commercial ranches. This is a prime environment for bison. The rolling terrain is caused by ancient glacier morraine. There is water, the grass is tall, and the winters relatively mild.
