The Great American Buffalo

The dramatic story of America's national mammal, which sustained the lives of Native people for untold generations and was driven to the brink of extinction, before an unlikely collection of people rescued it from disappearing forever. Ken Burns recounts the tragic collision of two opposing views of the natural world - and the unforgettable characters who pointed the nation in a different direction.
