We’re celebrating cultures from all over the world, including right here in the U.S. The Bronx Zoo played a key role in the recovery of the American bison. In the early 1900s, groups of our herd’s ancestors were moved from the zoo to the western plains, where bison were nearly extinct. Thousands of their relatives roam there today. | Bronx Zoo | Facebook

This month, we're counting down our 5 favorite Bronx Zoo stories from 2017. Today, No. 4: bison calves! Earlier this year, we introduced six of them born to a herd of seven females and one male that arrived at the zoo from Ft. Peck, Montana, last November. They are quite a sight.

You’re already familiar with our bison thanks to THE ZOO. Now, 8 purebred bison we received as a gift from the Fort Peck Assiniboine and Sioux tribes are on exhibit. This historic transfer is part of our longtime work on bison conservation. | Bronx Zoo
