Blackfeet Buffalo Program
The Blackfeet Buffalo Program (known as the Iinnii Initiative) was launched by the four-tribe Blackfoot Confederacy to conserve traditional lands, protect Blackfeet culture and create a home for the bison to return to.
Today, the Blackfeet Nation has 800 bison and counting in its herd, which roams 10,000+ acres in the southeast end of the Blackfeet Reservation.
