EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up and witness the grandeur of the American West in the heart of New York City! This postcard image, taken circa 1920, showcases a portion of the impressive American bison herd that once roamed the New York Zoological Park in the Bronx. The serene scene presents a striking contrast to the bustling urban environment that surrounded the zoo during the 1920s. The American bison, also known as the American buffalo or simply buffalo, is an iconic symbol of the United States and a species that once numbered in the millions across the Great Plains. However, by the early 20th century, their population had dwindled to just a few hundred due to hunting and habitat loss. The establishment of zoos, including the New York Zoological Park, played a crucial role in the conservation of this magnificent species. In this photograph, the bison herd can be seen peacefully grazing in their enclosure, their massive forms dwarfing the trees and shrubs that surround them. Their shaggy coats, large hump, and powerful build are on full display, making for a truly awe-inspiring sight. The tranquil atmosphere of the scene is further emphasized by the soft, muted colors of the image, which transports us back in time to an era when the wonders of the natural world could be found even in the most unexpected places. Today, the American bison population has rebounded, with numbers estimated to be around 30,000 in North America. Their story serves as a reminder of the importance of conservation efforts and the enduring connection between humans and the natural world.
