    From the beginning of their existence, many American Indian tribes have been deeply connected to the buffalo and used the buffalo as a primary source of food, clothing, tools and spirituality. The way of life for the tribes who called Colorado home changed drastically as settlers targeted American Indians and buffalo in lethal ways. Now, government entities, nonprofits and tribes are working to restore the national mammal to its homeland.

    I am grateful to the indigenous people of the Americas who model for us the proper care and veneration for all of creation - Attended buffalo roundup in SD for many years

    I’m from Michigan I saw a baby bison on a farm when I was riding the school bus when I was in high school and it was such an amazing thing to see.

      Just know that the pioneers in the 1800 killed all the Buffalo to gain the rights to remove the Indians

    Fantastic documentary on the buffalo. Such a shame what happened right after the Civil War.

    I would love to see bison roam free in public lands all over Colorado one day! I can imagine a large new area in southeastern Colorado full of bison.

    As a white man I am so thankful to see the original land owners take back their history!

    Did the guy at 6:00 forget that Europe has bison as well? They look a little different but Europe has its own subspecies of bison.

    I agree that all tribes should have had the sovereign abilities to allow for bison/Buffalo grazing on their tribal lands. That should have and may have been the case all along. Curious to see how their numbers increase or dwindle over time knowing that they cannot roam from Mexico to Canada anymore

    Return of the buffalo? Don’t you mean bison?

      Hi there. You can read more about why we chose the term buffalo here: www.rmpbs.org/coloradoexperience/season-10/return-of-the-buffalo/#versus

    Next time it would be nice to have interviewees sure of what they are saying. As a 6/th grade teacher she sounds like she’s reciting back exam questions.

    Such an incredibly sad story. Cows in open grazing lands should be replaced by bison where possible.

    Thankfully, some people cared enough that the American Buffalo didn’t go extinct.

    As a Caucasian person, I love the Native Americans and the buffalo. There is no excuse for the treatment they have received from the so-called "civilized" white man.

      No, several individuals and tribes began breeding bison. They found forgotten herds in Yellowstone National Park and used those as breeding stock. They did buy some from CAnada,but most came from the US.
