The natural habitat of the bison is the plains of the American mid-west.
Primarily open grasslands. Wood bison or bison that are a mix of wood and plains bison, will also live in or near forested areas.
they live in plains, prairies, and river valleys.
Buffalo are hunted by gray wolves. Calves may also be killed by grizzly bears. However, bison populations are only at risk due to restricted habitat. Their habitat is small because humans use most of the land that bison use to live on. Humans are the biggest threat to bison.
"The prairie is an ideal habitat for wild bison."
The two main causes of the near-extinction of the bison were 1. Habitat loss from ranching and farming, and 2. Commercial hunting.
Bison were once endangered due to overhunting and habitat loss, but concerted conservation efforts have helped increase their populations. Today, bison are classified as near threatened, with populations continuing to grow in protected areas.
Plains bison and wood bison are two distinct subspecies of American bison, primarily differentiated by their habitat and physical characteristics. Plains bison are typically found in open grasslands and have a more robust build with a larger hump and shorter legs, while wood bison inhabit forested areas and are generally taller and leaner, with a smaller hump. Additionally, wood bison are less social and tend to form smaller herds compared to the more gregarious plains bison. Conservation status also varies, with wood bison being classified as a threatened species in some areas.
