Nature Walk: American Bison

American bison are the quintessential big herbivore of the Great Plains. They are herd animals with strong family ties and are very protective of their young. To have the opportunity to observe a large group moving over the prairie is to see natural and pioneer history at its best.

Happy Monday from everyone at INHF! Check back next week for a new photo from Iowa wildlife photographer Carl Kurtz.

If you are interested in purchasing a print or requesting information on possible use for any of these photographs, please contact Carl at cpkurtz@netins.net.
