Chase a Wild Buffalo Stampede With These Heroic Cowboys | Short Film Showcase ctm magazine
The bison—sometimes referred to as a buffalo—is a living symbol of the American West. Despite once roaming the plains in numbers greater than 30 million, this iconic animal has recently come dangerously close to extinction. By 1900, extensive hunting and fur trading had reduced their population to less than one thousand. Although much progress has been made over the past century, conservationists are still working diligently to bring back the magnificent beast of the plains.

In this short film by Josh Chertoff and Alfredo Alcántara, saddle up with a Colorado rancher who’s risking everything to preserve the endangered species. Equal parts environmentalist and cowboy, Duke Phillips is not your average conservationist. Join him and his crew of horsemen on a thrilling ride as they herd thousands of wild bison for their unique conservation initiative.

I could not understand how limiting their numbers and grabbing their free roaming land by ranchers is called conservation.
You all should be allowed more land. It's better for the soil for a more open range, beyond just feeding them. They will fertilize more growth.
Who is here after playing Rdr 2🤘🤘😎😎
Rdr2 brought me here and I’m not disappointed whatsoever
Bison*
Spurs..
Imagine the herds, that people saw years ago and numbers were measured by how many hours or even days it took for the herd to pass!!!
the soundtrack doesn't go along with the video at all
GET OUTTA ThE DAMM WAY – Authur Morgan
Awesome video and story
All this leather and yahooin is starting to trigger me…
We share this world with all the magnificence of nature. What right do we have to destroy any of the earths creatures !!! Humanity is the most intelligent creature and also the most capable of being the most destructive or creative. Because of this we owe it to nature to be good stewards of our recourses…..including our wildlife.
Whoever praises this video forgot how America was made and stolen from native indians. This documentary is a joke. Claiming native indian heritage, "The bison—sometimes referred to as a buffalo—is a living symbol of the American West". Americans killed the buffalos near extinction to discourage native indians nomadic way of life so y'all can take their lands as your own. Nature doesn't need balancing, humans are the ones disturbing the peace. At the end of the day, it's all business just like it has ever since this country was colonized.
Yeah, But I LIKE To See The Bison WIN Every Once And A While …
Cowboys are so cool
Can you help me with money to buy one horse
What a great short film!! I got to see the Bison in person when in Yellowstone just a few days ago & had an absolute great time there checking out the Bison as well as the park❤️!!!
Yee-Haw!
Ah MEN🤩
This is my America what a gift from God
Now this is my dream one day, going out there with a few friends and our horses and just having fun with cattle.
indigenous land remember that
What’s funny is that the Anglos think the cowboy is American when it’s just a cheap knockoff of the real tradition horseman from Spanish and Mexican heritage.
Hmm Colorado
This Is quite interesting
1:57 Micah?
Absolutely incredible! I am a farm boy from South East Australia (Southern highlands) and have always dreamt of being a ranch hand in the states. Australia doesn’t have this tendency for huge properties (ranches) like this. More divided into several ownerships from 500-1000 acres. To have a job like this would be an absolute dream. Hopefully one day I can share the glory to be a ranch hand, horse rounder in a place like this. Amazing video. Very enjoyable.
how are they now?this pandemic.
so good
I bet those guys smell like goats after a week of that cowboy stuff.
Me just trying to make a trade sale in rdr2 online:
Lvl 100+ persistent posse: 4:35
Red dead redemption 2 vibes ❤️
hahah my uncle is a hunting guide at this exact ranch and ive shot multiple elk here and seen all those bison
Cowboy, which US-Americans 🇺🇲 brag about as their own, is an art created by Mexicans 🇲🇽 when TEXAS was a Mexican province in the 19th century.
United States and its eternal habit of stealing things from others.
Cowboy = Mexico
Hallowen = Ireland
Santa Claus = Holland
Burger = Germany
Dollars = Spain
4:13 Immediately I hear Pippin singing "Edge of Night"
Deputized government cowboys 🇨🇦⭐🇺🇸
