James Scotty Philip: The Man Who Saved the Buffalo

Born in Scotland on April 30, 1858, James Scotty Philip moved to Kansas and later to South Dakota in pursuit of gold. A dedicated family man, he married Sarah Larribee and fathered ten children. Philip served as an army scout and became a pioneer in buffalo conservation, purchasing a herd to prevent their extinction. Tragically, he died at 53 due to a brain disease but left a lasting legacy through his work and the cemetery he built for his children. Philip's efforts in buffalo preservation are remembered to this day.
