To help celebrate National Bison Day, here's a short video from the release of 100 bison from Badlands and Theodore Roosevelt national parks at the Wolakota Buffalo Range on the Rosebud Sioux Reservation in South Dakota.

The tribe hopes to one day see 1,500 bison roaming across 28,000 acres of grasslands there. This video was captured by Paul Bebsen of the Rosebud Economic Development Corporation,  © Paul Ebsen / REDCO
