It is sort of fuzzy when the extinction of plains bison occurred. There are historical accounts of the Buffalo Bill Wild West Shows from 1880 to 1913. One feature in all his shows was a staged Bison Hunt for his show audience. He took with his shows a herd of about 30 buffalo to conduct this show feature. He was familiar with the Plains, him being a former scout so those were likely plains bison he took with him. He had to have a source to replenish his show stock and must have known where to find them. There must have been some plains bison that survived the mass extinctions. Which may have meant there were a few surviving plains buffalo into the 1895 1900 time period that he knew where to source them from (maybe in Montana). So have heard small numbers of pure wild plains buffalo survived up until around 1895 or slightly later.
