Deer, bobcats, coyotes, many varieties of birds and waterfowl, and a small herd of elk also call the island home. But most famous are Antelope Island's American Bison, introduced to the island in 1893 and now numbering some 600 animals. The world-renowned herd is managed by the Utah Division of Parks and Recreation and visitors are welcome at the island's buffalo corral and management facilities. During the annual bison roundup each November, visitors can get a close-up look at the bison and the techniques used on a working buffalo ranch. Facilities include modern rest rooms, showers, beach picnic area, RV and primitive camping, and marina.
Concessions are also available.
