Late Monday afternoon, March 19, 2012, 64 bison from Yellowstone National Park were due to arrive at northeast Montana’s Fort Peck Reservation under a long-stalled relocation initiative to repopulate parts of the West with the iconic, genetically pure animals, a tribal official said. Montana Gov. Brian Schweitzer said Monday the bison shipment was a first step in efforts to bring the animals back across a larger landscape. (AP Photo/Janie Osborne, File)
