Description
One of the more surprising episodes in Smithsonian history is the time when a small herd of American bison grazed on the National Mall, right in front of the Smithsonian Castle. They were brought in to highlight the importance of protecting the species, which had almost become extinct in just a few decades in the late 1800s.
This plush bison backpack is a nod to what became a conservation success story, but kids will simply love it for its curly fur and gentle eyes. With a sturdy zip along the back and adjustable straps, it's a charming companion for a trip to the zoo or wherever they may roam.
