Description
Stopped by to visit the bison in Wynstone, South Dakota just across the Iowa border. These guys stared me down big time. I was very happy to have a strong fence between us when he decided to charge at me.
The American bison and the European bison are the largest terrestrial animals in North America and Europe. Bison are good swimmers and can cross rivers over half a mile wide. They are nomadic grazers and travel in herds. The bulls leave the herds of females at two or three years of age, and join a male herd, which are generally smaller than female herds. Mature bulls rarely travel alone. Towards the end of the summer, for the reproductive season, the sexes necessarily commingle. American bison are known for living in the Great Plains. Both species were hunted close to extinction during the 19th and 20th centuries, but have since rebounded.
