There’s a place called Needmore Buffalo farm in Indiana where you can get quite an education on raising them. Another thing people don’t know is they have a “soft side.”
Yep...their hair is not scratchy or stiff like cattle, it is very, very soft and can be spun into a fine yarn.
But of course shearing them isn’t practical or safe, so you can go to the farm and collect the fur off of the barbed wire fencing in spring/summer when they shed their winter “wool” in great clumps.

You probably can’t neuter them easily either.... :)
