You haven't lived until you've been chased by a bison in the dark.
I had no plans on getting that close to the bison, but you honestly can't see them in the dark with only the moonlight.

I looked it up on wiki, and it says a male is six feet tall. I have to hand it to the indians who went after these with a bow and arrow. I would have told the chief, "Me no can hunt, today".

North America had approximately 60,000,000 bison/buffalo/tatanka before 1492.
By 1890, they had been hunted virtually to extinction, with only a few thousand left.
Levels are at about 500,000 these days, mostly on ranches and farms.
gif is ca. 1887

When you're hungry you would use bows and arrows.
I always think of Wyatt Earp and dances with wolves

I was once fishing the Firehole River in Yellowstone one afternoon and started to walk out to the road just before dark. While crossing through some aspen trees, I found myself surrounded by a small herd of bison, including one huge male about the size of the one in the picture. I felt really helpless, armed only with my flyrod and creel.

Aerodynamically advanced.

I saw one about twice that size at a park once. It dwarfed the rest of the ones there that were similar in size to the one in the pic. I was fricking shocked by the size of that mofo.
