Tatanka is a Lakota word that translated means “bull buffalo.” The American bison is an absolutely extraordinary animal. Once hunted to the brink of extinction in the 19th century, it has rebounded well thanks to refuges, state and national parks and private stocks.
This particular bull cast me a rather evil eye and I have to admit was somewhat intimidating when you throw in the drool. 😉 Thankfully I was safely in my truck when I took this picture.
