Tour hank you! We are using this in our 5th grade Texas Master Naturalist class with a nearby elementary school, Rosemont, at Twelve Hills Nature Center.
Beautiful video! Great educational video. I really love your passion for the topic. I hope the video is being used to teach in formal settings. I've been working on restoring a small prairie in Michigan. I'm 5 years into the project and have never regretted my decision to take the plunge!
Introduction of cattle probably had more to do with reducing bison numbers than hunting did. Hunters always get the blame though, and as a hunter and conservationist, I take offense.
Bison were systematically exterminated as surplus commodities to be liquidated with dual genocidal purposes of depriving the plains tribes of their means of survival as the Great plains were 'civilized'. There was bounties placed on bisons heads (and the scalps of native Americans, a practice brought from Europe despite what Hollywood would have you believe). Luxury train tickets could be bought allowing travelers to shoot as many bison as they could for entertainment as they were chugging across the country. This is a simple matter of record, incontestable as the well known pictures of literal mountains of bison skulls.

Wow, what a resource! Thanks for all your efforts putting together this in depth video on our Blackland Prairie.

I have wondered where I could help with a resteration project near or in Denton county

if you're gonna make a claim like this then you need proof
You know, cattle have a predator, don't you? This predator is called humans.
