Return of the Bison to the Sacred Land of Wanuskewin: Reviving a 6,000-Year-Old Bond
For over six thousand years, the Indigenous peoples of the Northern Plains gathered at Wanuskewin — a sacred site home to two historical bison jumps. But by the late 19th century, the population of 30 million bison had been driven to the brink of extinction due to overhunting and habitat destruction.
In 2019, through the collaborative efforts of Indigenous communities, engineers, and the Wanuskewin Heritage Park Authority, bison were reintroduced to the plains. Just a few months later, the first bison calf in over 150 years was born on this sacred land.
This inspiring project is a powerful example of cultural and ecological restoration — a reconnection between people, land, memory, and ancestral traditions rooted in millennia.
