It sounds like the Buffalo knocked the bullshit out of him.

My husband and I had the privilege to babysit a neighbor's " american bison ". His name was " Stanley ". We would visit Stanley daily and feed him and texas longhorns from the back of a small flatbed truck. We found Stanley a pleasant fellow ( uncut ) and was graceful as he ran behind the truck with a bale of hay in the back. We were surprised by Stanley's easy SMOOTH speed easily keeping up with the truck with hay in the back. Sadly Stanley passed from natural causes. Miss him.

There is an interesting history behind the official bison herd of Texas. The original Goodnight/JA herd had genetics only unique to themselves and unlike any other in North America. However the uniqueness would turn out to be a liability in that they would not survive because it was not diverse enough. Eventually they were breed with some of Ted Turner’s herd in New Mexico. And the Texas bison went in to populate other bison in the country such as the ones in Yellowstone. The official herd of Texas now roams freely in Caprock Canyons state Park which is not that far from the Goodnight herd in Palo Duro Canyon state park. I highly recommend both parks.

Those were just the skulls. The information stated in this did a good but conscious effort to skirt the fact that eliminating all of the buffalo was a concerted plan by American leaders to kill off the Native Indians. They don't teach this in most schools because it was a Government organized attempt of genocide and they almost pulled it off. Until around 1832, which is only 192 years ago and is not some ancient history, buffalo were thriving east of the Mississippi River. BTW- There were hired gunners on trains that targeted passing herds that had people loading their guns for them so they could shoot and kill as many buffalo as possible. Shoot one grab a loaded gun, shoot one grab a loaded gun..... Unlike at all what was stated, is that they didn't use the dead buffalo to feed the railroad workers or any other people and they didn't use them as resources, they just left all of the states covered in hundreds of thousands of rotting buffalo carcasses on their way west to take over and populate the country. Hiding our uglier side of history like we did with the real truth about slavery. Is it that "His story" was just a really just a made up story?

Biological warfare and starvation, a Genocide ... Leading to wounded knee and the trail of Tears.. 💀 Yet the legacy of Sitting Bull and Chief Joseph and others, survived like these few Buffalo ... The Buffalo have recovered and returned ... hopefully the wisdom of the first Nations will follow in their path, time to listen before its too late for the new Americans?

Ok just to answer. The term back then though bison was the same as African Buffalo. They are both similar to on another. It's similar to what a pit bull is termed today. American Stafford terrier is the actual origin as English Bull terrier. Which is the real pit bull term from English. America tends to use the mistaken identity of animals. The bison VS Buffalo American Stafford (incorrect)vs English bull terrier(correct). Jack London wrote the terms wrong and So bison and Buffalo, were called wrong from 1900 wrong. And so the term were pretty dumb. He did that then. It hasn't changed. The terms were first written in 1898 as Buffalo/ Pit Bull Terrier VS England in terms you can understand today that "Call of the Wild" started the wrong cases. Just so a reader which means what, American Stafford terrier didn't nor Buffalo were terms originally used. The English bull terrier got the name "pit bull " going back over a thousand years to fight in the bulls in the bull pits in England ended in 1688 as illegal. The term Buffalo goes back wrong even more so. All just so you know the American Stafford terrier started existence in about 1800 in Stafford Virginia given the meaning. Take both terms and that's what it meant.

I thoroughly enjoyed this video. I grew up in Texas and I grew up hearing about my Dad , a farm boy who as a young man joined the Texas Guard Service. He and his fellow Guardsmen went across the border to Mexico to watch the bullfights. He told me that he and his buds were cheating for the bulls and the crowd didn't appreciate that. Being a farm boy that raised cattle he didn't like seeing the Matador slowly bleed out the bull with pikes as he run by until he was so blood-lost that he didn't have any more fight in him and then walk up to him like a big shot and drive his sword into him when he didn't have any fight left. So they cheered when the bull would get the Matador ;⁠)

Oh! What memories you conjure up, for me ... Grew up in EP in the middle sixties; and witnessed the bullfights there. Alfredo Leal was a top bill fighter from Spain, if memory serves me. His youth and debonair style had every sweet young thing in Juaréz following him around his hotel in swarms. During one occasion, we happen to have friends staying in the same hotel (newly built in the Chamezal area). Elegant stairs, indoor bars that spilled out into various sitting niches, outdoor sunken bar/poolside with a ledge to stand on in the pool; so you could swim to the bar and perch there while drinking your daiquiri, then swim off after being refreshed! We always had to accompany our friends and family, visiting us in summer, to bullfights. Heady times, indeed ... I loved going over to Juaréz in the '60's and '70's!

Pierre had three bulls staying as far away from him as possible… Pierre sat down in the middle of the ring and took a nap! Lmao sounds like an American 🇺🇸… hilarious 😂😂

I remember growing up in Orangevale, CA (Suburb of Sactown) and in the early 90's when driving up Hwy50 in Folsom near Prairie City Rd along the hwy there must have been about 50-100 Buffalo. In the late 90's we just stopped seeing them. It was always cool seeing that herd of Buffalo growing up

Most of them were crossed with bovine to make it possible. I think the only pure bread heards are in Yellowstone. Maybe a couple private collections but cattle made the recovery happen.

When I was young and living on our farm I witnessed a confrontation when our big Brown Swiss bull had it out with the neighbors Charolais bull. Our bull, Roy, had enough of the neighbors bull baying at him and chasing one of his cows in heat. Roy was across the road behind 4 strands of barbed wire. I could not believe it when Roy went over the wire, crossed the road, and jumped a cattle-guard. He continued charging and the other bull charged as well. I had no idea they were going to head butt, I thought they would just holler at each other and maybe push each other around, as I'd seen done before. Boy was I wrong. They hit like 2 locomotives and the fat and muscle on both bulls rippled like a wave from their head back to their tail and back towards their head. Then they backed up and and did it again. I got scared they were going to kill each other. But the Charolais went down on his front knees after the second hit and Roy stood there pawing the ground, ready to go again. The Charolais got up and headed for home. I don't think he ever crossed over and chased Roy's gals again. I saw Roy take on several bulls that strayed onto our place, usually over cows in heat. But the funniest was when the other neighbors' big white stallion took him on. It used to harass the cattle, biting them and giving a little kick sometimes. When he met Roy, Roy turned to look at him and got a hoof between the eyes. Then Roy turned 90% and rammed Sugarfoot (the horse) in the side and down he went. Roy was just about to run him into the ground, but the horse jumped up and fled. I remember several other encounters Roy had and he never lost. As big and powerful as he was, he was just about the gentlest bull I ever saw. We used to ride him and he just trotted around, never trying to dump us.

I am surprised that a Brown Swiss bull was big enough to handle a Charolais. When I owned a ranch in southeastern Oklahoma, I had what was supposed to be the second-best bull ever recorded in the world, with another Charolais in France being the best. My Charolais was raised by someone from the town just south of Oklahoma City where the university is. I kept two bulls; one was a registered Black Angus that I kept for my heifers, because the Charolais was too heavy for small, young first breeding beef cattle. The way they measure cattle to determine their national standing (and I don't remember everything) is by taking sonic measurements of the ribeye, their weight per day of age, their weening weight, and more. Some of the Hunts, of oil company fame, had a Charolais ranch out west on Highway 80 on the north side of the highway. When they had a big sale of their cattle, they printed up a thick catalog with most of their bulls on separate pages with their pedigree listed. I had to laugh to myself to see that none of them came close to the quality of my bull but would sell for far more I would have been able to sell my bull. I wish I had a place now, but one can't pursue two dreams at once.

Great story! First one I've seen on your channel. I very much appreciate the personal narration. Even with the odd stumble of the tongue, it is 1000% better than those robot voiced we hear so often on KZread. So new sub for sure!

In 1872 you would have been there watching with them. People at that time had to kill their own food and had not raised animals to the same level as people. I only kill something if I intend to eat it and that's fairly rare any more, but I will slaughter a hog, but my children understand that our pets were not family members, and were never treated as if they took an equal place in our house.

Black Elk tells a story of a bull that fought a bison. The two charged at each other : the bison's horns tore a huge gapping wound from the bulls head to its tail. The bull fell over dead having been sliced from head to tail.

THANK YOU!!! I have been hoping someone would post this comment. I read that book some years ago, and was hoping someone else would have as well. He said the Indians were betting on the bison (he called it a buffalo but I don't want to bring all the corrections people out) and the whites were betting on the bull. I can't remember if it was a longhorn or not. I do remember everyone questioning how the bison would be able to connect with its tiny horns and most people, including the boy Black Elk, thinking the bull had a big advantage in its reach. He told another story about a bear and a dog that were made to "fight.". Remember that one?

Apparently, you can't preorder on the Arcadia Publishing website, but I plan to get a copy of your book. Roman Spectacle on the Rio Grande... perfect title. What a fascinating subject.

Living near Yellowstone National Park, one night I was driving home to Bozeman in the dark. Having just lost one of my headlights I was just leaving the town of West Yellowstone. When suddenly I came near to smashing into a massively large Bison. Luckily for me the enormous solid creature was almost half way across the road so all I had to do was swerve a little to miss him or she. As massive as these creatures are, a fighting bull from Spain would never have had a chance against a fighting mad bison. If the people from Mexico had ever seen a full size bison, they would never have bet against the massive beast. The contest was over before it started!!!!

I was born and raised in Juarez (been gone a few years now). Went to a couple of bullfights as a kid but the one I remember enjoying the most was when the matador was so unskilled that the crowd started cheering for the bull! I can't believe I never heard this story before, but I'm glad how it turned out. Thanks for sharing this with the world. I subscribed.

My friend's cousin has a ranch and his Buffalo are so laid back and friendly! I was petting the big creatures and they seemed to enjoy the interaction with humans! I kinda understand why it took Pierre a bit to react to the threat! I will say this they are so huge up front around the shoulders and neck I understand how they got the best of the bulls! It's kinda like a bull dozer vs a front end loader! The bulldozer being the Buffalo is just built to hold its ground and push around anything in it's way especially if it is a threat! Great story!

Petting them and treating them like a pet will get you killed dead. Most of them I've seen in private hands have enough cattle genes in them to calm them down some, but they are still moody and unpredictable regardless of how long you've been petting them.

Good video. Next time do a practice run through to get out grammar mistakes. Then make your final version and while making it if you have any as everyone does. Stop the recorder and start where the sentence ended with no mistake. Or where there was a pause without a mistake. Also, try to keep the tone of your voice constantly building to the climax of the bison killing 3 bulls. Keep at it! Listen to others with a lot of subscribers and their constant changing of voice tones. Some good ones are "Dark Skies" , "Project Farm", "Task & Purpose". I hope this helps.
