American Bison, too. The repopulation of American bison (often called buffalo) is one of the most successful repopulation efforts in history. The reason you’re able to order buffalo burgers at your local hipster burger joint is because American bison is no longer endangered. The population has come from less than 1000 total bison (all privately owned by a handful of conservationists) to over 400k today.

I had a Bison meatloaf once that was so good. It’s so much lighter than beef. It was like eating a meat cloud.

I saw on Ted Turner’s wiki page that he helped with that.

The irony of all ironies is how similar the words “conservation” and “conservative” are.

That’s because the root of both is to converse. To keep things the way they are.
Politics gets in the way of that reality since they don’t actively want to keep it the same, they actually want to regress back to previous times they can exploit personally.
