Buffalo

Bison bison

Description:

On Elk Mountain of the Wichita mountains in Oklahoma. Was by himself, chowing along the trail.

Habitat:

Elk Mountain, Wichita Mountains, Oklahoma

Notes:

Seemed very accustomed to hikers, was able to get so close because of some rocks beside it we were able to climb on.

Oh awesome, Lauren, thanks for adding all those extra pics and a video (which gives a great idea of the lovely habitat the buffalo lives in)! Hope to see lots more cool spottings from you :D

Lauren I've removed the picture you were trying to delete. I am not sure why you couldn't do it but let us know whether you have further technical difficulties And thanks for adding more pics of the buffalo! This is a great spotting.

Hey Lauren, this is an interesting spotting, but do you think you could maybe swap it so the second photo is the main photo for the spotting? We want the main focus to be the wildlife, though it's cool the buffalo didn't mind having you so close! Also, the scientific name for the American buffalo is Bison bison, so if you could add that too, that'd be great. It helps the website find related spottings, plus makes your own spotting more complete! Welcome to Project Noah too, hope to see more neat wildlife from you!
