A mothballed army ammunition plant near Madison is getting returned to the land's original owners, the Ho-Chunk Indians. The deal marks a beginning of a lengthy restoration process, as the rich prairie along the Wisconsin river is currently mostly dead.
Before the buffalo can roam once again (the tribe's long-term goal), the soil will have to get restored. And that is slow work: it might not be finished for another century or so.
