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
