Buffalos Rise From Near Extinction In North America
John Dickinson recounts the buffalo revival on both sides of the border. He notes U.S. and Canadian herds growing, a shift from plains nomads to ranches, and planned transfers of Canadian wood buffalo to Fort Smith and Wainwright. The piece surveys historic slaughter, market demand, and the changing fate of the "Monarch of the Plains."
