Open sky, open land, and thousands of Bison descending off a bluff, and they don’t stop coming.

Eileen didn’t seem all that phased by the throng of wild animals headed her way. “I’ve seen plenty of bison on my trips to the US but never moving like this. Amazing to see.”

AWESOME VIDEOS AT LINK!.......................

She shoulda rolled down her window to pet one of them.

Better yet, she coulda asked one of the calves if they wanted to ride in the back ...

If you ever see a corral build for bison you will notice that it is build like a cage out of Jurassic Park. Buffalo are not domestic cattle.

I used to have to feed the buffalo for a college internship program and that is when I found out I am highly allergic to buffalo. I would have died of anaphylactic shock if I had tried to live with a buffalo hunting tribe like the Sioux or the Cheyenne in the 1850s. That or they would have killed me for being diseased snot factory.

You are a diseased snot factory?

There’s a bright future awaiting you in today’s Democrat Party!

Thousands?

No.

A couple of hundred.

I wish I could see thousands of them stampeding, but where could you get those massive herds together again? Bison need huge acreages to live in big numbers.

Wasn’t this something Ted Turner was trying to do by buying up huge tracts of land in Montana and the Dakotas?

To bad the “Mouth of the South” is still all mouth.

Oh, to go back to the days when the great herds of Jackalopes inhabited the prairies.

Don’t pet the cows.

Never pet the fluffy cows.

This has to be a domestic herd being moved, as in a “cattle drive.”

Apparently Bill Gates bought a lot of those tracts. He is reportedly America's biggest rural landowner.

Go to Custer State Park and see idiot tourists walk up and try and pet the wild buffalo.

This still happens even with humans still on the planet. Humans have not ruined everything. Life still goes on even with us here.

Stay upwind of bison; they stink.

“Video of bison stampede is unreal...”

A bull elephant stampede is “unreal”; the earth moves. Bison are merely pretenders. But I still wouldn’t want to be around either.

And remember, you can’t roller skate in a buffalo herd.

Bison were nearly wiped out by humans. I think they were down to a hundred or so out of hundreds of thouands or more. Humans have ruined plenty. There are plenty of animals who are no longer around do to humans.
