    Summary:

    An expert on the buffalo tells the history of this keystone species through extensive research and beautiful photographs. Few wild animals captivate our imaginations as much as the buffalo. These magnificent creatures played a significant role in structuring the varied ecosystems they occupied, and North American Indigenous Peoples depended upon them. Based on author Wes Olson's thirty-five years of working intimately with bison--and featuring Johane Janelle's stunning photography--The Ecological Buffalo takes the reader on a journey to understand the myriad connections this keystone species has with the Great Plains.
