Action Details: Interpretive Programs

Produce information about bison for school programs and the general public

Bison are not exotic to the Yukon but have a history of some 700,000 years. Today's Wood bison subspecies were present 5,000 years ago in the Beringia Refugium. Until the last century, bison were a significant component of several First Nations' cultures and economy. Information on bison in the Yukon should appear at the Beringia Centre and be available to schools for inclusion in relevant courses.
