Description

A photo by Lincoln Rogers of American Bison napping with their calves in the warm spring sunshine beside a stream inside the boundaries of Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming, USA. Using photo software, the image has been textured and colored to represent an old, vintage-style photograph that could have been taken during the early years of Yellowstone National Park from the late 1800's to the early 1900's.

According to Wikipedia - The American Bison (bison), also commonly known as the American buffalo, is a North American species of bison that once roamed the grasslands of North America in massive herds, became nearly extinct by a combination of commercial hunting and slaughter in the 19th century and introduction of bovine diseases from domestic cattle, and has made a recent resurgence largely restricted to a few national parks and reserves. Their historical range roughly comprised a triangle between the Great Bear Lake in Canada's far northwest, south to the Mexican states of Durango and Nuevo Le�n, and east to the Atlantic Seaboard of the United States (nearly to the Atlantic tidewater in some areas) from New York to Georgia and per some sources down to Florida.
