Caption: American Prairie Reserve is a conservation nonprofit working to establish a fully functioning prairie ecosystem complete with the wildlife that once roamed these lands. APR will stitch together almost 3 million acres of public land with surrounding private land to create one of the world's largest protected prairie ecosystems, collaboratively managed for wildlife and recreation.

Caption: I spent my last full day with American Prairie by tagging along with APR's Senior Bison Restoration Manager Scott. I learned about the herds and their importance to the prairie landscape, and got a taste of what this land would have been like thousands of years ago.
