I've had a few opportunities to sit and photography bison out in Grand Teton NP. It's amazing how agile and fast these animals are especially given their size. I was sitting alone one morning watching a heard of about 300-400, and saw one next to a fence about 4 feet high, and from a standstill it easily jumped over the fence.

I'll never understand why people think they can just walk up to a bison and pet it with no consequences.

A few photos I've taken of Bison:

Empire of the Summer Moon is the best read out there on the Native American culture and its demise in the 1800s, focusing on the Comanches and the life of Quanah Parker and his mother who was an assimilated Comanche captive. The author has been on JRE and that’s also a great listen. Excellent companion piece for a deep dive to this miniseries.

Google mapping/Earthing some of these areas, especially the Quanah Parker Star House, is fascinating also.
