Duke &
The Buffalo

Duke and the Buffalo takes place on the Medano-Zapata Ranch, a 100,000-acre tract of land in Colorado owned by The Nature Conservancy. The film follows the story of Duke Phillips, who manages the ranch, as he presides over the landscape’s most distinctive feature – one of the largest conservation herds of bison in the United States.

Duke represents a new breed of rancher, as much environmentalist as American cowboy.
