Expeditions with Patrick McMillan: Great Plains II

Expeditions with Patrick McMillan: Great Plains II - The Ghosts of the Plains

Imagine 30 million bison and 4 billion prairie dogs sharing the plains with us. In only a decade these massive herds were all but extinguished. We look back at the actions of the people in the 19th century in disbelief; how could they do that? So have we learn from their mistakes, or are we doomed to repeat them? Prairie dogs, Black-footed Ferrets and Kit Foxes--these are the stories and species of our time. Join Patrick as he journeys into the prairie with researchers who are trying to change the fate of those that are on the verge of becoming the ghosts of the plains.
