Where the buffalo roam…where the elk and the longhorn play…
Yesterday afternoon we saw mountains emerging on the horizon beyond the vast Oklahoma grasslands. It’s an amazing place. Set aside as a wildlife refuge in 1901 after the great buffalo hunts that all but completely wiped out the American Bison. Today this park is a home to reintroduced bison, elk, and Texas longhorns. There’s grasslands, mountains, rivers, and lakes created by CCC dams, woodlands, raccoons, deer, collared lizards, prairie dogs, and much, much more. It’s hard to leave it so soon.
