Wisent and its key role in Dutch nature

Eight years ago ARK Nature, Duinbehoud, Kritisch Bosbeheer and PWN brought the European bison back into Dutch nature. Next spring, there will be a group of bison at the Veluwe and there are concrete plans for these animals on Schiermonnikoog. The bison, along with other grazing animals, fulfills an important role in nature. ARK artist Jeroen Helmer made a beautiful drawing of the European bison and its key role in nature. The drawing is free for everyone to download and can be used for example during a visit to the Kraansvlak dune area.
