The Hațeg Bison Reserve

The Hațeg-Slivuț Reserve is a subdivision of the Hunedoara Forestry Directorate, which prides itself on being the first place in Romania where the European bison reappeared. This happened on November 12, 1958, when a pair of bison was brought from Poland. That was when the action to restore this precious fauna of the Carpathian Mountains began, mountains that once housed numerous herds of bison.
