bring back bison across North America where they were once hunted to near extinction in the late 19th century.</span> <span data-start-time='18875' data-end-time='32313'>Tens of millions of bison, also known as American buffalo, once lived on the Great Plains of the United States and Canada.</span> <span data-start-time='32313' data-end-time='39042'>Many Native American tribes needed the animal to survive. </span> <span data-start-time='39042' data-end-time='55021'>They ate the bison’s meat, used its bones for tools and weapons, and made clothing and housing, called teepees, from its hide.</span> <span data-start-time='55021' data-end-time='62125'>European settlers turned killing bison into an industry. </span> <span data-start-time='62125' data-end-time='71000'>They used animal parts in machinery, fertilizer and clothing. </span> <span data-start-time='71000' data-end-time='86583'>By 1889, few bison remained: about 800 animals in the wild and 250 in zoos and private ownership.</span> <span data-start-time='86583' data-end-time='96854'>U.S. Interior Secretary Deb Haaland is the first Native American to serve in the cabinet. </span> <span data-start-time='96854' data-end-time='110563'>She told the Associated Press, “We wanted to populate the western half of the United States because there were so many people in the East.”</span> <span data-start-time='110563' data-end-time='121021'>The thinking at the time, she added, was “if we kill off the buffalo, the Indians will die. </span> <span data-start-time='121021' data-end-time='124688'>They won’t have anything to eat.”</span> <span data-start-time='124688' data-end-time='136542'>Now 82 tribes across the U.S. have more than 20,000 bison in 65 herds. </span> <span data-start-time='136542' data-end-time='152521'>And that number has been growing along with the desire among Native Americans to look after the animal that their ancestors depended upon for thousands of years.</span> <span data-start-time='152521' data-end-time='165708'>The long-term dream for some Native Americans is to return bison to the large numbers that once shaped the landscape itself.</span> </p></div><div
