Bison and Texas State Parks
ParkChat

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) We wish there was a bison herd in New York State! All we got is Buffalo...hahahaha! #parkchat

@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 #parkchat A1 definitely have #bison here in #southdakota! @WindCaveNPS has a very old herd, the beginnings of which was promoted by the great TR himself! Cool story on their website: https://t.co/pWjprDmgNZ

replying to @59NationalParks @59NationalParks @Donald_Beard @Wild_Tribute A1 I know there is a herd near Denver. Custer State Park. Yellowstone and Grand Tetons. Those come to mind quickly. Have seen bison on different ranches too. #ParkChat
replying to @59NationalParks @59NationalParks @Donald_Beard @Wild_Tribute A1 of course at Yellowstone. #ParkChat


A1: We actually have bison in CT at Creamery Brook Farm. I've never been #ParkChat https://t.co/3nfY6puT5S

@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 A1) I don't know their name but there's a Buffalo herd in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park. #ParkChat

@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 I've seen two herds of bison in my travels: one very small herd at Wiilderness Road State Park in Virginia, and the other at the Elk & Bison Prairie in the @LandBtwnLakes in @KentuckyTourism #ParkChat

replying to @59NationalParks @59NationalParks @Donald_Beard @Wild_Tribute A1: I’ve only seen herds @YellowstoneNPS and @GrandTetonNPS. I’ve seen bison at the National Zoo in Washington DC. @ParksandPoints doesn’t Buffalo, NYhave a statue of a bison or am I imagining that? #ParkChat

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

RT @louisbink: @59NationalParks @Donald_Beard @Wild_Tribute A1 of course at Yellowstone. #ParkChat https://t.co/AeoGo6dPBC

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
