Today, Village Earth delivered two more buffalo to the Pine Ridge Reservation purchased through our “Adopt-A-Buffalo” program from the annual Custer State Park Buffalo Auction. The two yearling heiffers were delivered to the Braveheart family to help diversify their seed herd that was released September 25th through the program. Above: An always cheerful Henry Red Cloud assisted with the selection and transport of the buffalo from Custer State Park this weekend. Wanblee Red Cloud also helped with the pickup by watching out for shill bidders.
