Did you know that America's last wild buffalo roam freely only in Yellowstone National Park? In this captivating episode, we’re joined by Justine Sanchez and Dallas Gudgell from the Buffalo Field Campaign, as we dive deep into the incredible story of these majestic creatures. Discover the rich history of the buffalo, their profound significance to Native American cultures, and their essential role in shaping the American landscape.
Imagine this: before the arrival of settlers, it’s estimated that up to 60 million buffalo thundered across the plains. But by 1900, only 23 remained—a staggering loss that nearly wiped out this iconic species. Today, around 4,000 to 5,000 wild buffalo survive, but they face new threats from some government agencies.
In this episode, we explore these pressing issues, uncover the fascinating prophecy tied to the birth of a rare white buffalo calf in early June, and much more. This is not just another podcast episode; it’s a journey through time, culture, and conservation. Get ready for an eye-opening, deeply informative, and profoundly moving conversation that will leave you thinking long after the episode ends. Don't miss out on this special episode... a very special episode!!
