Two stories intertwine, one of a Comanche boy told by his grandmother about the extinction of the buffalo, the other about the saving of several of these animals by a zoo and conservationists bringing them back to the grasslands of Oklahoma at the beginning of the 20th century.
The only criticism I have is that the saving of this small herd doesn´t compensate the killing by the white settlers.
