According to the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, the 503-acre bison range prairie at the park can sustain a herd between 80 and 90 animals, based on the quality and quantity of grass. About 20 to 30 calves are born each spring at the park.

The bison are one of the features that draws visitors to the park each year, the park’s lead naturalist said in a July 2023 KELOLAND News story. “They’re a big draw, people come from all over to see our herd of bison,” lead naturalist Tiffany Muellner said in the story.
Park manager Chris Ingebretsen told KELOLAND News in April of 2023 that the herd started two bulls and cow.
The herd at Blue Mounds started in 1961 with “two bulls and a cow from the Fort Niobrara National Refuge in Nebraska,” Ingebretsen said in a KELOLAND News story. “The herd grew and over the years another 540 acres of prairie was added.”
