Wood Bison
Just in time for National Bison Day on November 5, WCS’s Arctic Beringia program has released a new film that follows 28 wood bison yearlings released in the Alaska wilderness.
This film follows a current and unfolding story of rewilding and wildlife restoration and offers an intimate view of the hard work and personal passion involved in wood bison reintroduction that’s actively trying to make the world a better place.
Wood bison are the largest native land mammal alive in North America. Their range spans from Alaska to Central Canada. By the 1940’s they were presumed extinct.
Produced, shot, and edited by Woodruff Laputka of WCS’s Arctic Beringia program
