The new Buffalo Nations Landmarks program recognizes the importance—for all people—of revitalization of relationships between Buffalo Nations, the American Bison (i.e., “buffalo”), and the lands within and surrounding Yellowstone National Park (YNP). The program will prepare two groups of K-12 educators from across the U.S. to implement curriculum focusing on history and revitalization of the buffalo as situated within the histories, geographies, and contemporary knowledges of Indigenous Nations.
