Notes
Park Species Detail: per Bogan at Certification, Recent (i.e. within last 2,000 years or so), Bison may have occurred at COLM (map, p. 405 in Fitzgerald et al., 1994). The trick will be in establishing that the 'vouchers' represent Recent Bison and not sub-Recent or fossil Bison., Park Species Data Source: Bogan 2000, Bibkey #141330
