“Talk to your friends and family, and make sure your representatives are making

About Us
Green Buffalo Runner began in 2010. The Green Buffalo symbolizes one of the first environmental success stories in our nation’s history. The most prominent mammal to ever roam the U.S., the American Bison (aka Buffalo) numbered 40 million in 1800 and less than 100 years later, as few as 600 remained. Thanks to the conservation efforts of the era, the trend was reversed, ultimately preserving these majestic animals.
