William T. Hornaday

Together, they estimated the number

of bison left in North America. As of

January 1, 1889, it wasn’t many.

Only 1,091.

Where were they? One place

was Yellowstone National Park.

In 1894, a law passed.

It protected animals here.

No one could hunt them.

Hornaday helped form the

American Bison Society.

When? In 1905. It asked the

government to protect more

bison. Where? On reserves.

The first herd was only 15 bison.

It was sent to Oklahoma. How?

By train. They went to Wichita

National Forest. The society

placed herds in more national

parks. The government

started more herds.
