The prairies of North America. This rich pasture once supported the greatest herds ever seen on our planet. There were once 60 million bison but no animal is immune to intensive hunting by man or the destruction of its habitat and a century ago the bison were reduced to barely 1,000. Now, thanks to rigorous protection, the species is recovering. The growing season is long and the grass here can support herds all year round. Male bison weigh in at one tonne. In high summer the bulls are fat from the rich grazing and in prime condition but only a few will mate. Exactly which few is about to be decided.
這裡是北美大草原。在這片草原上曾經有地球上最大的野生獸群。這裡一度有6000萬頭美洲野牛,但任何動物都無法承受濫捕濫殺和棲息地被毀的惡果。100年前,野牛的數量只剩不到1000隻。由於強有力的保護措施,現在這個物種又開始恢復生機了。這裡的草長期生長,動物一年到頭在這裡都有食物可吃。充足的食物使雄野牛的體重可達到1噸。在盛夏季節,豐富的草食和生活條件讓公牛變得很肥壯,但只有少數能夠有交配的權力。哪些雄性有權交配在時間不長的角斗中很快就會決定出來。
