You heard it right, and yes as local Gainesville movers we were surprised as well. Just 15 minutes outside of the city lies Paynes Prairie Preserve State Park, home to roughly 70 bison. Supposedly bison lived in the prairie for years, but this group is the result of a reintroduction of bison to the area in the 1970s. They've recently been controlled due to safety concerns, and will not be hunted or killed but rather relocated to various preserves.

If you're a fan of animals of a wide variety, add bison to the list you can see in Gainesville, Florida. National wildlife parks boast alligators of course, along with many different bird, reptile and fish species among other animals. Calling up a Gainesville moving company might not be such a bad idea if you enjoy adventure and living amongst a wide variety of wildlife.
