"Yellowstone" at Westover Library, Arlington, Virginia, August 15 - September 30, 2017
The Stare
The Yellowstone Park bison herd is believed to be one of only four free roaming and genetically pure herds on public lands in North America. The other three herds are the Henry Mountains bison herd of Utah, at Wind Cave National Park in South Dakota, and in Elk Island National Park in Alberta.
---Greg Embree, curator
"Looking at a buffalo nickel or a picture of a bison, or even looking at them in person, they can appear quite tame, since they don't (usually) move that fast in winter. Don't be fooled. They are conserving their energy. This one seemed to have plenty of energy in his gaze!"
