Although 80% of Canada's native prairie has disappeared over time, Grasslands National Park represents the most intact example of what remains. The park has a flourishing herd of approximately 200 bison that freely wander their native lands.

The bison are considered a keystone species and have helped mold the Great Plains as they are today.

Prime times:

The best time to see the bison (or perhaps even a prairie dog) is anytime between 09:00 and 20:00 CST (15:00 and 02:00 GMT).

Camera schedule:

The camera is currently live 24 hours a day.
