(ORGAN)

Sue Scott: As you listen to our show, sitting in a warm, comfortable living room, or a car with a heater, we hope you'll think about the 350,000 Bison who roam the northern plains. (ARCTIC WIND, BISON) and endure the winter with only a tuft of fur around their shoulders. Why not consider adopting a bison this month? No, I don't mean send a cash donation for hay to be dropped out on the plains, I mean: take a bison into your garage. (BISON) When you do, you not only rescue a 2,000 pound mammal, you also help preserve a piece of American history. Bison spend most of their time sleeping (BISON SNORING) , so they're easy to care for. Here's young Bitzy (BISON GRUNT) and his sister Mittens (BISON SNORT). And you can find more bison at our website, ABBA.com — Adopt a Bison Before April. Thank you.
