BIALOWIEZA, Poland -- Krzysztof Niedzialkowski is trying to teach Europe's largest land mammal, the bison, to become more European.
To keep the animals from extinction, Mr. Niedzialkowski, coordinator of the European Bison Program, is trying to change the migration patterns of about 400 lowland bison (Bison bonasus bonasus) roaming the primeval forest in northeastern Poland. He wants to persuade Polish bison to breed with other wild herds of the same species in neighboring Lithuania and Slovakia.
