{"product_id":"lost-tracks-jennifer-brower-9781897425107","title":"Lost Tracks: National Buffalo Park, 1909-1939","description":"While contemporaries and historians alike hailed the establishment of Buffalo National Park in Wainwright, Alberta as a wildlife saving effort, the political climate of the early 20th century worked against it. The Canadian Parks Branch was never sufficiently funded to operate BNP effectively or to remedy the crises the animals faced as a result. Cross-breeding experiments with bison and domestic cattle proved unfruitful. Attempts at commercializing the herd had no success. Ultimately, the Department of National Defence repurposed the park for military training and the bison disappeared once more.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jennifer Brower\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1897425104\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781897425107\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Athabasca University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.50d","brand":"Jennifer Brower","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48088939692287,"sku":"9781897425107","price":32.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4cdc7e5c-c37d-45fa-b016-cb7fd463b6e2.jpg?v=1769107393","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/lost-tracks-jennifer-brower-9781897425107","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
