| Description |
Bison waiting in holding pens. On September 4, in cooperation with the Intertribal Buffalo Council, Kaibab National Forest, and Arizona Game and Fish Department, Grand Canyon wildlife managers successfully relocated 57 bison from the North Rim. All bison were transferred to the Intertribal Buffalo Council, who successfully transported them to the Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation (Kans.), the Flandreau Santee Sioux Tribe (S. Dak.), the Santee Sioux Tribe (Nebr.), and the Modoc Nation (Okla.). Eleven additional bison were outfitted with tracking collars and released during the corralling process. The collaring was conducted in partnership with the U.S. Geological Service for park wildlife biologists to study the bison migratory patterns and population size. The goal of the 2020 Bison Reduction Program was to capture and relocate approximately 60-100 bison during a two-week corralling period from August 28-September 8. A pilot program was conducted on the North Rim in September 2019 with successful relocation of 31 bison to the Quapaw tribe (Okla.). <a href="https://www.nps.gov/grca/learn/news/fifty-seven-bison-relocated.htm" rel="noreferrer nofollow">www.nps.gov/grca/learn/news/fifty-seven-bison-relocated.htm</a> |
