Q1 #ParkChat Our crack research staff has identified 23 public bison herds scattered over 19 states (there could be more). Is there one in your state? If so, name and describe it please. How many different herds have you seen in your travels? @Donald_Beard @Wild_Tribute

replying to @59NationalParks @59NationalParks @Donald_Beard @Wild_Tribute A1: No bison herds in Ohio that I'm aware of. I've only seen the herd out in @YellowstoneNPS but they were magnificent

A1. I'm sure there are #bison in Washington, but I don't know of any herds that are part of a park. Ranches, more like. I've seen them at @YellowstoneNPS, @GrandTetonNPS, and probably some places I'm forgetting. #ParkChat

replying to @59NationalParks @59NationalParks @Donald_Beard @Wild_Tribute A1: Antelope Island State Park is home to, ironically, bison. Fun facts, The bison were introduced in 1893 when the current ranchers wanted to build a herd for private hunting. The island can support about 500 head.

replying to @59NationalParks @59NationalParks @Donald_Beard @Wild_Tribute A1. Sigh, no. Canada geese flocks, sure; but no bison. And moose. #parkchat

A1 #parkchat Banff NP reintroduced bison to the park last year. I’m hoping to see them in July.

replying to @59NationalParks @59NationalParks @Donald_Beard @Wild_Tribute I've read that there's a herd in Utah's Henry Mts (near GSENM, Capitol Reef and Glen Canyon NRA). And aren't there some near the Grand Canyon?

A1: Just discovered Utah has a second bison herd I didn't know about. The Henry Mountains are home to a genetically pure, free-ranging herd. Time for a visit. #parkchat

replying to @59NationalParks @59NationalParks @Donald_Beard @Wild_Tribute A1 We have bison in Ouabache State Park in Indiana. They are in a large pen. It's a "herd" of about a half dozen. #parkchat
