  • The resolution highlights how important bison are to Native American Tribes. Currently, 87 Tribes work together to manage herds of about 25,000 bison across more than one million acres of land.
  • Bison also play a big role in the economy and the environment. There are nearly 200,000 bison raised by private ranchers, which helps provide jobs and a sustainable food source while keeping grasslands healthy.
