A rare white bison calf, born on June 4 in Yellowstone National Park, has gone missing, raising concerns about its survival. Named Wakan Gli, meaning 'Sacred Return' in Lakota, the calf's birth is a significant event for Native American tribes, fulfilling a prophecy that signals both a blessing and a warning about environmental stewardship. The calf has not been seen since its birth, despite multiple reported sightings initially confirming its existence.

Yellowstone officials note that about one in five bison calves die shortly after birth due to natural hazards, adding to the concern over the calf's fate.
