As one of the largest landholders in America, media mogul and philanthropist Ted Turner has over decades restored struggling species like the American Bison and rebuilt biodiversity on his two million acres. Now, Turner is opening some of his land to visitors, creating almost overnight what amounts to a private national park system. Correspondent Lee Cowan reports.

A non-greedy billionaire! New concept. Thank you Ted.
I wish we in the US would celebrate strong men like Turner than Trump.
THANK YOU TED ! ! !
I’ll never be able to afford to witness the Grace of these lands myself. But i’m fully in awe of them none the less, knowing well – how essential and precious nature is !
And yes – i’ve NO DOUBT there is a God. So glad you’ve contributed (a great deal) toward heaven on earth. When otherwise so much of the opposite has been happening in this realm of free choice.

Ted Turner, thank you so much for loving nature and trying to preserve it! It can be done, if people really want to do it! What a great way to spend your money!! I cry too when animals get killed…I don’t believe in taking a gun into an animal’s home and killing it.
