DENVER â Denver Parks and Recreation gave 14 American bison to tribal nations Friday to help reintroduce the animals to their native habitat.
Thirteen of the surplus bison are headed to the Cheyenne and Arapaho tribes in Oklahoma and an additional bison will go to Tall Bull Memorial Council in Colorado.
This is part of the City and County of Denverâs efforts to return the animals to their native homes, while supporting conservation efforts, on tribal land. These kinds of donations to American Indian Tribes or American Indian nonprofit organizations will continue through 2030, according to the city.
