First, a fascinating and heartbreaking update about animal #42, Bison (which incidentally is my most liked post!): a new paper in The Review of Economic Studies looks at the terrible effects that the near-extinction of the bison as a deliberate policy of European settlers had on Native Americans. I would be interested to see more studies of similar instances where a group of people and a particular animal have a very close relationship.
