About 1500 years ago the European bison lived in Margeride. Their disappearance from France began in the 1000's or so to migrate gradually to the forests of eastern Europe.
After World War I, the survival of the European bison species is dangerously threatened; there are only a few specimens from the Bialowieza forest in Poland from which the species will be saved.
The creation of this European Bison Park in Lozère was based on the will of Polish naturalists wishing to create a new pole of conservation of the species in Western Europe.
