Welcome!
Welcome to each of YOU who joins us on this incredible journey!! Together, we’ll share history, legend and the wonderful buffalo stories that never grow old. Our vision is to inform, inspire and bring people throughout the world to a greater appreciation of the intrinsic value of the magnificent buffalo and their centuries-old history on La Riviére Grandé.
There’s much to learn, but each step is a delight! We are learning together. Once bound for extinction, the buffalo were rescued one calf at a time by ordinary people—whose families cared. We bring you the full narrative including the last great traditional hunts, a known buffalo jump, the people who saved calves and now all of us celebrating our amazing National Mammal in parks, ranches and tribal lands. We call this Buffalo Alive on the River Grandé because this is the one place in the world where buffalo have always lived and grazed, since time immemorial.
If you live on far distant shores—we bring you virtual buffalo tours to enlighten and delight from your armchair! Come visit us!!
We love having YOU aboard and hope you’ll find something with us and our Native friends that’s meaningful, that touches your heart and mind. It’s an experience you won’t forget!
