Jessica Hodge+FollowBison’s Wild Comeback: From 1K to 500K!Did you know bison almost vanished forever? In the 1800s, there were up to 60 million bison roaming North America—then commercial hunting and government policies wiped them out, leaving less than 1,000 by the 1890s. Thanks to conservationists, Indigenous leadership, and some serious teamwork, bison herds are back up to around 500,000! But here’s the twist: only a tiny fraction are truly wild, and the fight to restore their place on the plains isn’t over. Wild, right? #BisonComeback #Conservation #WildlifeWin #Science330Share
Daniel Barajas+FollowBison Are Back on Their Ancient HighwaysBison are making a wild comeback, literally retracing the same migration routes their ancestors roamed for thousands of years! Thanks to a mix of science, indigenous leadership, and big conservation dreams, these massive creatures are reclaiming their role as grassland engineers. From Yellowstone to tribal lands, bison are breaking through old barriers (sometimes literally) and reviving ecosystems along the way. It’s not just about saving a species—it’s about restoring ancient rhythms to the American wilderness.
