Man, I always forget how large bison can get.

The resurgence of the American Bison is one of my favorite conservation stories. A population over 60 million 250 years ago, whittled down to a little over 500, back up to 31,000 now. Still a work in progress though.
Seeing them in Yellowstone out in the wild felt like I was going back in time 400 years

Saw them in Yellowstone as well. First in the morning mist, then two days later at the same spot in glorious sunshine. Awesome.

Montana's Chophouse is now Cannon's. Don't think they have bison on the menu anymore.

Wooden Nickel Buffalo Farm in Edinboro is my go to. Dan is a good guy.

No idea, but it certainly appears to be a... troglodyte. TIL troglodytes are a genus of birds, ha.

Didn't beat the elk 10 feet from our car, but still majestic nonetheless

It's funny, there were all these warnings, and rightly so, about staying on the paths for fear of stepping on a layer of thin earth and having to wear a Darth Vader suit the rest of your life. But these bison? dey don care

Also Betelgeuze and Rigel near Orion, if I'm not mistaken. But @shafnutz05 knows more about these things.

Edit: oh, they're part of Orion. Shows you how mich I know about these things.

They would be down around the tree base, but you got auriga and lynx in there

Maybe your right, kinda hard to tell with Orion basically on his belly. Maybe Gemini in there?

I thought the two bright spots to either side of the belt were them.
