@@BrokenArrowBison Thank you! What he said at 24:00 in this video has me SO curious. I want to know more, but I live too far away to talk with him face to face. How /do/ bison react to different colored bison? How do they react when they meet a bison they've never met before? How long does it take them to warm up to each other? How do they react to peer pressure? How do they react to different situations - which situations has he seen where a bison's reaction surprise or interested him? How old is Doc Parson's oldest bison? How old has he seen them get? What bison living or dead was his favorite and why? Has he ever bottle fed his own calves, and how did those animals turn out? The list goes on and on. If you have the opportunity, please pick his brain for me. There's so much more to bison besides their meat, but meat is all anyone ever wants to talk about. Thank you again.
