First Bison Born Wild In The Uk For Thousands Of Years At Kent Site

The first wild bison has been born in the UK for thousands of years in what has been hailed as a “monumental moment” by naturists.

Three of the animals were released into the Kent countryside in July but unknown to rangers was that one bison was pregnant - a fact the species keeps hidden to deter predators.

Rangers did not see the mother give birth as the female found a secluded location and the female calf was discovered days later.

Tom Gibbs, a bison ranger, told reporters: “What this baby bison born into the wild here represents… It’s a monumental moment.
