The wood bison used to roam the plains for thousand of years. Now we have a few hanging on to the brink of extinction! They live on the open plains and grasslands feeding on wild plants native to the area they are in. Of the few bands left of the old wood bison, their diet mainly consists of shoots, berries, and leaves and twigs. They were nearly wiped out due to slaughtering them for Thier hides and leaving the carcasses. There populations are still considered endangered and several areas are concerned with Thier populations to increase.
