John, I think that the authors took the title from my article about bizon vodka I never was in this forest, I wish I went there: Poland boasts the last primeval, virginal forest in Europe, which covers 1,500 square kilometres on the eastern side of the country bordering with Belarus.

Here is more sad news about Polish bizon: Wild bison with TB may have to be killed in Poland ILE - In this Feb. 2005 file photo, bison, Europe's largest land mammal, forage in the recently fallen snow in the Bialowieza Forest in Poland. Killing a herd of 25 wild European bison infected with tuberculosis may be the only way of preventing the spread of the disease to other herds of the rare species in southeastern Poland, officials said Monday, April 23, 2012. A commission of 18 veterinary and breeding experts in Krosno decided earlier this month to ask national authorities for a permission to kill the wild animals living near the village of Stuposiany in the Bieszczady mountains.
