    America has not had the appetite for Ken Burns style documentaries for a generation now.
    We've lost the desire to understand and know something thoroughly and replaced it with a swipe left or swipe right.
    There is a price for that.

    Beginning in the early 20th century, conservation herds were established to rebuild populations. Currently, there are approximately 20,500 Plains bison in conservation herds and an additional 420,000 in commercial herds. While bison are no longer threatened with extinction, the species faces other challenges.Jun 3, 2022

      Exactly. .. with so many countries threatened with population decline, one must ask themselves.. how can we do the New World Order 🌎 so that it works for Alllll of humanity ??
      Who Can afford to date and have families ?
      What about the rest of them ??
      Is uncontrolled Capitalism just an excuse for defacto genocide by way of criminal Negligence ??

    I recommend American Serengeti by Dan Flores. Fantastic book on the history of animals of America.

    There were huge piles of bones on the prairie, the bones were ground up for fertilizer and to make bone china. You don't see bone china brand new anymore

    While it was commendable and entirely reasonable to preserve 350K bison on protected land, it was also not especially an evil thing that the Marshal Plan was able to preserve the lives of millions of starving in Europe and Asia with food produced on the Great Plains.

    😢😢😢 unfortunately some animals are...holy creatures, buffalo meat was so yummy yummy, skin was perfect for boots and belts, bones were used for knives and tools, they were perfect creatures then...the illusion that our planet resources are boundless still today is a deadly trap, a reason more for you guys to keep the memory alive and wake up people, we need to invent the smart vegetals to give us the chemicals for the electric batteries before the lithium resources go exhausted as well.. yeah, you are doing a great job guys, never stop believe in. Chinese govt decided to bring more railroads all over the world, you can always bring the yummy yummy steaks every single station, instead of narcotics most Latinos will have the honor and pleasure to become very nice American partners in business, think about it friends ❤, that's what fans are for 🎉❤🎉

    I knew it wasn't bison whatever the PC nerds said. It is buffalo. And starfish are still starfish as if anybody every mistook a starfish for a salmon or something. Peking and Bombay and Burma are still Peking, Bombay and Burma. Stop messing with English and do something else unproductive.
