Bison are magnificent symbols of the American West, known for their massive size and shaggy coats. These powerful herbivores once roamed the Great Plains in vast herds, numbering in the millions. They are a keystone species, playing a vital role in shaping the prairie ecosystem by grazing on grasses and creating habitat for other animals. Bison are social animals, living in herds that can range from a few individuals to thousands. They are impressive to behold, with males weighing up to 2,000 pounds and possessing a distinctive hump on their shoulders.
Sadly, bison were nearly driven to extinction in the 19th century due to overhunting and habitat loss. Through conservation efforts, their numbers have rebounded, but they remain a vulnerable species, reminding us of the importance of protecting our natural heritage.Your purchase will help with the conservation of Endangered and Critical Endangered species.
Each painting in this series was created on handmade recycled paper and is approximately 6x8.5 inches. The proceeds from this project have the potential to raise $10,000 for wildlife conservation, specifically helping Endangered to Critical Endangered species.
