     In Montana, it is home to some of the very last remaining plains bison, whose population plummeted from 50 million to less than 1,000 because of overhunting.

     The refuge encompasses a group of magnificent hills in the beautiful Flathead Valley, and includes a rich variety of habitats such as prairie grasslands, mountain forest, wetlands, and river bottom woodland.
