Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve offers its visitors an exciting chance to view an authentic Tallgrass Prairie, complete with its most photogenic inhabitant: an entire herd of bison! While running around the area, you're sure to either find the herd itself, or traces of where the herd has been in the form of tracks in the ground. In addition to the bison, expect to see an assemblage of beautiful birds in the area.
