Water Buffalo
A couple bull bison work their way across a chilly Madison River.
"A bison’s hump is composed of muscle, supported by long vertebrae. It allows the animal to use its head to plow through snow.
Most of the 500,000 or so bison nationwide are raised as livestock on ranches. About 30,000 are managed for conservation in private and public herds.
Fossils and accounts from early travelers show that Yellowstone National Park is the only place in the U.S. where bison have lived continuously since prehistoric times.
The Yellowstone herd is one of the few that remains genetically free of cattle genes." NWF
Enjoy a Super Weekend!
