Tanka Fund rancher numbers up 58%
We started 2023 with 12 ranchers. By the end of the year Tanka Fund added 7 new ranchers for a total of 19. That’s an increase of an incredible 58 percent.
New to Tanka Fund in 2023, THEDA POGUE (Muscogee Creek Nation) and her husband CHRIS received buffalo in November on their 60-acre GP Ranch in Hopkins County, TX —about 90 miles northeast of Dallas. According to The Texas Tribune, Theda said, "This herd is for us to share with our younger generations who will know what our ancestors have gone through.”
