Wood bison stand in their new pasture at the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center in Girdwood on Sunday, June 22, 2008. The state Department of Fish and Game has been working to re-introduce wood bison in Alaska for the past 15 years. The state last week imported 53 wood bison purchased from Elk Island National Park near Alberta, Canada, to compliment a herd of 33 wood bison already at the AWCC.
