Bison

One of the newly announced emoji being added to the ever-growing repertoire of our modern-day hieroglyphics is our very own state-flag star: The American Bison.

There's a new video that someone shared of bison walking down one of the main roads in Yellowstone. It reminded me how much I enjoy seeing wildlife take back ownership of the park during the winter months.

Just this past week, an effort to return wild bison to the prairie, took place on the Fort Peck reservation.

We all know that grizzly bears are insanely strong creatures and that when it comes to good food, they will stop at nothing to get what they want. This video shows just how determined this guy is to get his lunch. (This may not be safe for all eyes, so please use caution when viewing.)

We always warn tourists to not play or touch the bison, now it looks like we need to teach our dogs not to play with them either.

It's crazy to see how much Jackson hole has changed since the late '40s! One thing that I did notice was that in every photo of the buffalo, there's not one tourist to be seen trying to ride on or feed one.

No longer do the roads of Yellowstone belong to the people. They have now been taken over by the bison.

These two YouTube videos we found are of young baby bison who are now a little better at handling those wobbly things under their bodies.

Wyomingites know home is just 1 mile ahead when they see this bison on the bluff on the east side of I-25 near Carr. It’s a metal cutout that hides a secret.

Bison are huge animals, but they usually aren't thought of as being fast movers. A tour group in Yellowstone recently found out firsthand how fast the massive beasts truly are.
