The American bison (Bison bison) is the largest land mammal in North America and once roamed the continent in massive herds numbering in the millions. Bison played an important role in prairie ecosystems by shaping plant growth patterns and supporting many other species. They were also an essential resource for many Native American tribes, providing food, clothing, and materials for shelter and tools.
During the 19th century, bison populations declined dramatically because of overhunting and habitat loss. Conservation efforts helped save the species from extinction, and today bison live in protected parks, reserves, and managed grasslands across North America. Despite their large size, bison are surprisingly fast runners and can reach speeds of up to 35 miles per hour when threatened.
