Buddy Bison™

shenandoah natl park resize

For 15 years, Buddy Bison™ has been NPT's mascot. Now, however, Buddy has a new mission - to reconnect children and their families with nature!

An NPT member inspired the idea. Out of the blue, Pat and Rusty of Maryland (photo below), sent us photos of their NPT Buddy in various parks and wilderness areas across the country, and along with their photos, shared stories of their American Park Experience.
