Buffalo Bill Sings for Bison Preservation in Congress
The article urges renewed congressional action to establish and maintain a national herd of American bison. It notes the species' drastic decline to about 1,700 animals, most in private hands, with small herds in Corbin and Pablo groups and in Banff, Yellowstone, and zoos. It traces the American Bison Society’s formation in 1905 with Roosevelt as honorary president and Hornaday as president, arguing for government backing to prevent extinction and to sustain profitable meat and hides markets.
