Note: Only the first eight of the herds in this category have been (so far) found to be free of cattle genes. [[Links to papers regarding cattle genes in wild bison]]

Remaining herds fit into the criteria of wild bison in other regards (and have in some cases very low frequency of cattle gene introgression), thus their management is still considered relevant in relation to other wild herds.
