TheWood Bison : North America's Rare Giant
The wood bison is uniquely Canadian :  in its natural state, it only occurs in Canada. It is also the largest lan mammal in North America often reaching two meters in height and weighing over 900 kilograms, mirroring our vast land's massivity and power. Despite their great size and abundance - its population was once over 168,000 - these great foragers were reduced to a few hundred at the dawn of the twentieth century.
In Wood Buffalo and Elk Island National Parks, the Parks Canada Agency has worked with great care and tenacity to bring the wood bison back from the brink of extinction, successfully growing their number back to over 10,000. Long an example of humanity's destructive power, the bison has, for far longer, been a Canadian icon, symbol of the West, and a core component of the pantheon of Canadiana. Through its successful rehabilitation, the story of the wood bison may now also become one of Canadian conservation's success stories.
