Description
This American Bison was photographed in Theodore Roosevelt National Park in North Dakota. Herds of buffalo or bison roam freely in the park even blocking the road at times. I was especially enthralled by this fellow because of the way he was watching me photograph him.
The American bison (Bison bison), also commonly known as the American buffalo or simply buffalo, is a North American species of bison that once roamed the grasslands of North America in massive herds. They became nearly extinct by a combination of commercial hunting and slaughter in the 19th century and introduction of bovine diseases from domestic cattle, and have made a recent resurgence largely restricted to a few national parks and reserves.
