After a long decline, buffaloes are brought back to reservations in the USA by Indians and conservationists. Before being systematically hunted by European settlers, it is assumed that there were more than 60 million buffaloes. The numbers went down to only 541 in 1889. The number has increased again to about 500,000, mostly living in National Parks and reserves.
