Three tribes are applying to receive a share of bison that were taken from Yellowstone National Park.
The Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma, the Fort Peck Tribes of Montana and the Quapaw Tribe of Oklahoma submitted applications to Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks by an April 30 deadline. They were among 10 total applicants.
A panel will now determine where the 135 bison will be placed. The animals are currently being held at a ranch owned by Ted Turner.
