25 bison moved from Grasslands National Park after deal

Bison are once again roaming the lands around Batoche, Sask., after an agreement between the Métis Nation-Saskatchewan (MN-S) and Parks Canada.

Last year, MN-S signed a memorandum of understanding with the federal agency to transfer 25 bison from Grasslands National Park, in southwestern Saskatchewan, to establish a new herd on MN–S lands near Batoche National Historic Site north of Saskatoon.

The bison were successfully transferred this week.

Eventually, they will roam on a portion of 690 hectares of land transferred from Parks Canada to MN–S last July.
