I think so. This is a member of a free-ranging herd of several hundred Bison on Antelope Island in the Great Salt Lake that share grazing there with mule deer, pronghorn antelope and bighorn sheep. Twelve American bison were introduced on the island in the late 19th century, when the species was nearly extinct. They flourished in the near ideal habitat of dry grass prairie, devoid of apex predators (excepting man) and were maintained and hunted by private ranchers. In 1981 the State of Utah completed purchase of the island to create a state park. It is one of the few publicly managed herds of American bison, and one of the largest.
