The Northern Arapaho Tribe of Wyoming is planning to restore bison on the Wind River Reservation.

The tribe wants to establish a herd of 300 bison on the Arapaho Ranch. The tribe will start off with 20 animals this October.

As part of the effort, the tribe is seeking a $175,000 grant from the Wyoming Wildlife and Natural Resource Trust Fund to place 75 miles of fence around the 32,000-acre site.
