*** About Bison: The bison, often referred to as the buffalo in North American contexts, is a symbol of strength and resilience. Historically, bison played a crucial role in the lives of many indigenous tribes across the plains of North America, providing essential resources such as meat, hides for shelter and clothing, and bones for tools. Today, they stand not just as a testament to wildlife conservation successes but also as an integral part of cultural heritage preservation among First Nations. Efforts to restore bison populations in places like Alberta symbolize not only ecological recovery but also a reconnection with cultural roots that span thousands of years.
