Donated Bison Herd Grew Past 2,000, Helping Restore Oklahoma Prairie
In 1993, Kenneth and Dianna Adams donated 300 bison to The Nature Conservancy to begin restoring prairie land. The herd has since multiplied into the thousands at the Joseph H. Williams Tallgrass Prairie Preserve in Oklahoma. Their grazing shapes plant diversity and creates habitats for wildlife. Combined with controlled burns, this grazing helps sustain the balance of the rare grassland ecosystem. Less than 4% of the original tallgrass prairie survives after decades of farming and urban growth.
