Are you familiar with the American Prairie Reserve project? I think it's pretty interesting. https://www.americanprairie.org/

Dan Flores is always pitching for it when he does podcast interviews.

EDIT: That reminds me that I need to read Coyote America by Dan Flores and America Before by Graham Hancock. Ordered just now.

I'm under the impression that before we hunted most of our big game to extinction, will share the plains with bison and other grazers. So we shouldn't be surprised, but I still am every time.
