Re: We need help

About 10 miles northwest of Allentown, Pennsylvania is the Trexler Nature Preserve, which has 2 covered bridges nearby, as well as herds of approx. 50 American Wood Bison ['buffalo'] and Rocky Mountain Elk in a meadow and pasture setting.  Many visitors from Europe are interested in Western U.S. history - but you don't have to go all the way out to the western U.S. to see them in a natural setting.  Here's the link to a website for it by Lehigh County - note the photos of the Covered Bridge, the Elk Ranges, and the several other Ranges -

 See also the Trexler Nature Preserve's own website, at - http://trexlernaturepreserve.org/ 

And here's a web page for the nearby Covered Bridge Park in South Whitehall Township, Lehigh County, which has 2 covered bridges -
