MWT – Grand Canyon, Where the Beefalo Roam

There is no such thing as Buffalo in America. You have to go to Asia or Africa to see true Buffalo. There are Bison. They can be seen at Custer State Park, Yellowstone and Wind Cave National Parks and privately owned ranches, but not at Grand Canyon.

Read the story about bison hybrids here.

 

SWF - Sunset over the Beefalo at Grand Canyon National Park

It must be hot in House Rock Valley to the east, as that’s where the Beefalo are supposed to roam. Cant’ blame them for heading to higher and cooler country where the meadows offer good grazing.

I had posted before about the buffalo at Grand Canyon. But they are really a cross breed of cattle and buffalo left over from early 1900 ranching in the area. They are smaller and have less shag around their necks. I believe the only place you can see the real thing is Yellowstone National Park.
