You may not have heard of it, but the Aussie horse sport of campdrafting is bigger than ever! And tonight, Dr Harry meets horse trainer Kendal Neilson who uses bison instead of cattle in specialized training clinics to hone the skills of horse and rider here in the Aussie bush. Despite their looks, bison are gentle giants… perfect for training purposes. And as an added bonus, Kendal is helping preserve these beautiful animals that came oh so close to extinction.
