[MCN] Gathering to Honor the Birth of a White Buffalo Calf in Yellowstone

[Chuck Irestone]

"The birth of the white buffalo calf in the Yellowstone has captivated the world. For it to take place within the only continuously-wild herds of buffalo is tremendous," said James Holt, executive director for Buffalo Field Campaign. "I'm honored the Campaign will, once again, host Chief Arvol Looking Horse. I hope this sacred occurrence will aide the plight of wild buffalo, for their existence is needed by all beings, especially here in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem."
When: Wednesday, June 26, 2024, 11 AM
Where: Buffalo Field Campaign headquarters, 14365 Hebgen Lake Road, West Yellowstone, Montana 59758
Who: Chief Arvol Looking Horse, 19th Generation Keeper of the Sacred White Buffalo Calf Pipe and Bundle will lead a gathering to honor the birth of a white buffalo calf in Yellowstone.
