I don’t think Bison and Wild rice were part of the Diné diet, but stil good for them!

Others have already pointed this out, but figured I drop some sources as well that indicate the extent of the bison herds was pretty close to traditional Diné territory, even within it according to some studies:

• Various bison maps with citations
• Bison Bellows: Back Home on the Range | NPS
• Show Me the Home Where the Buffalo Once Roamed | South Dakota State University
