Theodore Roosevelt National Park Working On Site Plans For Entire Park

Theodore Roosevelt National Park might be an overlooked or 'out-of-mind' national park, but it's really quite a fascinating place, from the Painted Canyon and the Little Missouri River to the remnants of Theodore Roosevelt's Elkhorn Ranch. To plan for the future of these and other sites in the park, Theodore Roosevelt staff have scheduled two public meetings for next week to discuss the planning process.

A Herd Of Bison In Theodore Roosevelt National Park

"The bison which founded Theodore Roosevelt National Park’s herd in 1956 included descendants of each of the five 'founding herds' which survived the species’ near-extinction in the late 1800s. The Charles Goodnight herd (Texas), the Pablo and Allard herd (Montana), and the C.J. Jones herd (Kansas) all contributed to the 1909 founding of the National Bison Range in Montana.
