A fund has been established to cover the cost of food and materials for bison that were displaced by a fire on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota.
A fire this week burned more than 23,000 acres on the reservation. Included were 17,000 acres of land used by the Oglala Sioux Tribe's herd of about 300 bison.
Only a handful of animals died during the fire.
