    The only bison I've seen have been on "bison farms", not roaming free as shown here. At least I hope they're roaming free on the prairie. I really like this image,

    They look very strong, are they wild or belong they to a farmer?
    Beautiful image, TFG !

      They belong to the state, and are part of the herd in Custer State Park. They roam freely over about 18,000 acres of grass land and forest.

      These bison are young and small compared to older bulls. Yes, they are amazingly strong, and can be unpredictable, and quite dangerous. There was a strong fence between us. I took no chances here.

    Works wonderfully in black and white. A truly magnificent shot.

    These bison look a tad menacing with their head down. A wonderful image of their world.
