Answer

To calculate or to get the population density you divide the population with the total area to get

4500/3472= 1.29 or 1.3 bison/square mile

Explanation

The population density is the measurement of population per unit area.It normally applies to living organisms and also sometimes it also occurs to human. It is calculated by dividing the population by the are. That is population density =Number of organisms in the area.
