In November 2021, the Government of Alberta amended the Wildlife Regulation under the Alberta Wildlife Act to finally designate wood bison as a threatened species, formally acknowledging wood bison as wildlife for the first time in our province.

With rare exception cattle ranchers have been the best of guardians of the land entrusted to them. May we continue to be conscientious caretakers of this precious resource and hand it on to another generation unspoiled.
