Description

Original Fine Art Photography and digital artwork by Donna Kennedy...

Not far from the glacial pools of Yellowstone I came upon a small herd of Buffalo that had just finished rolling in the mud around the hot springs. Several Bulls were testing each other to see who was boss, then they focused their eyes on me, so I quickly took a few shots and headed back to the safety of the car, (per my husbands request)
Several people were gored in 2015, taking selfies is not a good idea! 122

The American bison or simply bison, also commonly known as the American buffalo or simply buffalo, is a North American species of bison that once roamed North America in vast herds.
Bison, symbolic animals of the Great Plains, are often mistakenly called buffaloes. By any name, they are formidable beasts and the heaviest land animals in North America.
Bison stand some 5 to 6.5 feet tall at the shoulder, and can tip the scales at over a ton. Despite their massive size, bison are quick on their feet. When the need arises they can run at speeds up to 40 miles an hour. They sport curved, sharp horns that may grow to be two feet long.
