On October 11, 2019, WWF and partners released four bull bison into new territory in Badlands National Park, South Dakota. This is the first time bison have touched this land since 1877.
Over 2,500 WWF donors and those from partner organisations raised nearly $1 million to build 43 miles of new fence that extends bison habitat in the park from 57,640 acres to 80,193 acres—an area more than one-and-a-half times the size of Manhattan Island.
