This is a map (18 in. X 24 in.) of the systematic demise of the American Bison dated 1889 prepared by W. T. Hornaday and printed by Julius Bien. The extermination is highlighted by several colors outlining the reduction of herds until finally by 1889 there are only six pockets of very small herds left. This map shows the entire decimation of a species from the North America Continent. If you follow the history of the Western expansion, or the North American Model for Wildlife Conservation, YOU NEED this map.
