Hudson-Meng Bison Kill, Archaeological site in Sioux County, Nebraska, United States.

Hudson-Meng Bison Kill is an archaeological site in the Oglala National Grassland containing the remains of over 600 ancient bison preserved in a protected enclosure. The bones represent animals hunted by people who lived in this region thousands of years ago.

Two ranchers discovered the site in 1954 while digging a pond on their land. Archaeologists have studied the remains since then, using them to understand how people hunted bison thousands of years ago.

The preserved stone tools and bones reveal how early hunters tracked and killed bison herds for food and materials. Walking through the site, visitors see evidence of the knowledge and skill required for this dangerous work.

A visitor center offers guided tours and educational displays about the site and its discoveries. A hiking trail connects the location to nearby geological formations, allowing visitors to explore both natural and archaeological features.

The bison bones come from a species that disappeared long ago, standing between ancient extinct bison and the modern herds we know today. This finding helps scientists track how these animals evolved over thousands of years.
