Since time immemorial, the buffalo has roamed free on the Prairies.

At that time, the buffalo was valued by Indian people because it provided such daily necessities as meat, pemmican and clothing.

The buffalo was intricately tied to the everyday survival of Plains Indians for a very long time.

Today, the buffalo is still important, in many respects.

It's a art of Indian folklore and for generations, it has represented so much about what it means to be Indian, about a nomadic life long gone but still in the hearts and minds of Indian people.
