Notes

Saskatchewan Museum of Natural History Popular Series No. 16. This volume offers an overview of the relationship between bison, First Nations groups, and white homesteaders on the Canadian prairies. The booklet opens with a season-by-season description of the bison’s habits, habitats, and predators. Author Kathleen Stokes then turns to bison’s centrality to Indigenous prairie societies, explaining the animal’s hunting and use. Finally, Stokes traces the decline of the bison as homesteaders arrived in western Canada. The booklet concludes with a short section on conservation efforts, including the arrival of bison at Elk Island National Park (near Edmonton, Alberta).
