 11/28/2006~U.S. Fish and WIldlife Service Takes Action To Enhance Management of Wild Bison on Refuges
As part of this management strategy, Neal Smith National Wildlife Refuge, located near Prairie City, Iowa, will be transferring the 48 bison currently at the refuge to two different Native American Tribes.
The purpose of this phase of the action is intended to maintain a small but genetically unique group of bison at Sullys Hill and enhance the long-term conservation value of the herd at National Bison Range and potentially, throughout the refuge system, by distributing some National Bison Range animals to other sites.
The decimation of the historic bison herds across the continent in the late 19th and early 20th centuries removed this component from the prairie ecosystem.
