[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

Didn’t STALIN order the execution of several soviet soldiers who shot a wisent bison there in WWII?

Is this the animal that 2000 years ago caused a revolt against ROME when the Roman official demanded taxes could be paid in the form of ox hides, and he specified the LARGER ox hides?

Correct me if I'm wrong and I may well be. I think the wisent is wild cattle from which domestic breeds descend.

Last wild one was killed in Poland by German troops in WWI.

The European Bison looks remarkably like it's American cousin.
