Description : In June 1980, 28 wood bison were moved from Elk Island National Park to the Liard River Valley, an area southeast of Nahanni National Park. An additional 12 bison were transplanted in March 1989 and another 61 animals were released north of Fort Liard in March of 1998. Herd size was most recently surveyed in July 2003 when 154 bison were counted during a composition survey. It is estimated that the herd may number around 200 animals.
