Tallgrass Prairie Preserve: Bufe and the Buffalo



The Tallgrass Prairie Preserve is a 30,000 acre plus preserve owned by the Nature Conservancy in northeastern Oklahoma about 17 miles due north from the town of Pawhuska, Oklahoma. One gets the feeling, at the preserve, that the 21st century has not yet arrived to this corner of America. The preserve is a wild flower and wildlife refuge including a free-roaming bison herd of some 3500. The preserve is an excellent example of the fine work done by the Nature Conservancy.
