My grandfather was one of those ranchers who had a herd of buffalo. He started with a small number of genetically pure free-range American Bison in the 1970s and grew it with the goal of re-establishing it into tribal and/or conservation herds. He successfully did so a year or two before his death in 2015. He was proud of that!

Fun fact: in the 70's San Diego Zoo donated 14 bison to Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, which while being a massive training ground also functions as a nature preserve. Despite not being native to the region, the small herd has thrived and is up to almost 100 individuals now.

Beef is outlawed in most of India where I live, so the legal alternative is buffalo. It tastes nearly the same as beef. You might not even know if you’re eating it in a hamburger. Their milk is creamier and tastier for milk tea too. Fast food joints here still choose to use sheep meat on their red meat burgers though. Bison is too close to cow for them I guess.

There were so many bison bones left on the prairie in my native North Dakota, that farmers during the dust bowl era were still grinding them up to use as fertilizer. I have a friend that is a bison rancher and he assures me that they are much smarter, faster, stronger and more difficult to manage than cattle. It's part of the reason that bison meat is more expensive than boutique beef. It just takes more work and consequently you can't manage as many of them. The Dakota/Lakota method was to them manage themselves (though they did do work to maintain that massive bison habitat through burning) and pick them off strategically. It's always amazing to me that they did it on horses and even more amazing that they did it WITHOUT horses for a lot longer. Also having lived in the upper midwest my whole life I always said "buffalo" and I still do in my heart.

Well, before horses, Lakota and other plains natives had a very different way of life than we traditionally associate them with, instead of nomads following bisons herds and hunting them regulary, First, they were located in the great lake region, conflict with other natives drive them west, and second they hunt a little, ut they also gathered some wild rice and some corn. Most of the plains native were agriculturals sedentary nations, that grew corn in the plains and hunted some bisons when they passed by. It's really the horse in the XVIIIth century that totally changed the way of life of all these Natives ^^

In much of northern Canada, bison, deer, wapiti and moose have always been staple foods. Look at any old Canadian cookbook and you'll see plenty of recipes for them. Bison burgers are common in Canada's west, even among the urban and suburban crowd. I''m very fond of a traditional Cree and Metis treat: the Moose Nose Sandwich, made from alternating slices of the dark and light meats from the upper jawbone of a moose cooked with gelatin to make a spreadable head cheese. The bread for the sandwich is, of course, traditional bannock made with barley flour.

I remember reading a theory that suggests the massive North American herds (bison, pigeons, others) were actually an anomaly that wouldn’t have naturally occurred. Instead, they may have been a temporary, unbalanced result of early western explorers and settlers. The thinking is that native peoples had been part of an ecosystem that kept these animal populations in check, either through hunting, human settlement, agriculture, or even intentional maintenance and manipulation of the environment. (brush fires to clear and expand prairie land, for example). When the first wave of western explorers came to the Americas, they unintentionally decimated native populations through foreign disease and the introduction of invasive species that that unbalanced the ecosystem. With the weakened presence of native peoples no longer keeping them in check, some animal populations exploded to unsustainable sizes over a few generations. Just in time to be witnessed by the 2nd and 3rd waves of explorers and settlers, who assumed that was the natural state of things because it was all new to them. It was an interesting read.

Even on a ranch they're still very wild. I worked at a restaurant at a resort ranch in Utah a couple months. All I heard from the guys doing the ranching was how hard it was to herd them and how dangerous it was. They had some big reinforced fences when I started that the bison would habitually break and go wherever they wanted. They had a small grazing area where they had constructed massive, very strong fences that the bison couldn't easily break that held them for a while before the bison figured out they could just go through the gate. Eventually they got that figured out in time for a big event with the governor of Utah. The event planners wanted to see the bison run across a field during the event and when they were let out they took a run at freedom and it took over a week to get them back to the reinforced area. I thought it was kind of funny 😁

As they approached the bison, it spotted them and began to charge. The native guide immediately bolted and ran back to the river. The hunter looked disapprovingly at this display of cowardice, calmly lowered his rifle, took aim at the bison, and dropped it at the first shot. Then he stood up and called his guide back. The latter dejectedly came back. The hunter gestured at the bison and said, "See? That was easy." The guide replied, "Right. Now stupid white man try carry bison back to the boat himself."

One of my favorite bison facts is that a few of those wild bison (around a hundred) aren't living on the Great Plains, but on Catalina Island off the coast of Los Angeles. They were introduced there to film a scene in a western movie back in the twenties, and then left there, where they nearly overran the entire island. Eventually, the Catalina Island Conservancy started managing the size of the herd (locals will talk about the "year of the bison burger" on the island) to keep it down to about 150 from a high of 600. The funniest part, at least according to one version of the story? The scene where the bison appeared was deleted from the final cut.

The park is a shining symbol of the conservation movement, but there's also a fancy restaurant there that serves bison burgers (I've had them, they're alright but expensive as hell). Like you pointed out, whether they be in the field or on our plates, the fate of bison is up to human whims, and Yellowstone is a human creation.

One element missing from the threat on the bison in America; before the trains turned the hunting into sport, Comanches had learned how to ride, manage and trade horses descended from horses left by French and Spanish expeditions exploring the "New World." After a while, huge herds of horses eventually competed with bison for the grasslands for which there hadn't been any competition other than deer, elk and the like, none of which ever who had comparable populations until herds of horses were raised for trade to transport the new emigrants, who didn't bring them on the sail.

Another thing that perpetuated the destruction of bison that isn't often talked about is malignant catarrhal fever, or MCF. Similar to colonists and settlers wiping out entire indigenous tribes with diseases for which they had no immunity, the American bison suffered similar fates due to MCF. While most imported European cattle and ESPECIALLY European sheep had immunities to MCF, the American bison did not and it wiped out hundreds of thousands, if not millions. It is still a serious problem for bison ranchers today as well. My grandparents owned a small herd of about 35 and were given an additional 12 after a fellow rancher that had over 100 bison lost over 90% of his herd to MCF (he had a natural river that ran thru his pasture and several miles upriver, a sheep farmer allowed his sheep to go into the same river).

Bison also don’t overgraze like cattle do, so they don’t cause as much erosion. They don’t graze riparian areas, polluting streams the way that cattle do. They are quite good at coexisting with wolves and cougar without losing much if any of the herd, again unlike cattle. They don’t step in gopher holes and break their legs like cattle. Generally, it’s no surprise that the native species, bison, live better with the American West than the introduced species, cattle.

I like the Tataki idea. The leather belting in old factories wasn't just for spinning wheels. There was a central overhead shaft clear across the factory, with a steam engine or water wheel at one end to turn it. Dozens of belts took power down to the looms and jennies or lathes and grinders. Pre-electricity, most machinery was belt-driven by flat leather belts. (The pullies were domed slightly to keep the belts centered.) I knew that, but never thought about all the belts being bison hide. So thanks for that information. (I once helped an old farmer hook up a tractor to an old corn miller, using flat leather belting.) (The first gasoline engine was cranked by using a belt from an overhead shaft. When they turned on the petrol feed and it started exploding the gasoline, they realized they should have put a muffler on it, they should have vented it outside, and they should have had some way to stop the belt.)

i think the most chilling thing i've heard about the extermination of the buffalo, and how it links to the genocide of native americans, is the words of an american colonel: "Kill every buffalo you can! Every buffalo dead is an Indian gone.” also, and i do recommend doing some research about this and it's a contested hypothesis, but there's theories that the massive numbers of bison seen by louis and clark, among other phenomena, were actually directly traced to the decimation of native american peoples by smallpox, which spread ahead of the european settlers. removing a major portion of the human population, who were known to carefully curate the "wild" herds, may have destabilized the ecosystem and lead to unsustainable booms in population. granted, i haven't exactly researched this recently but it's a chilling possibility.

Let's say some ultra powerful alien adolescent find him/herself at our planet. Not understanding (or caring about) human emotions, feelings or connections he/she finds something curious about the human brain. They want to collect all the brains on the planet so they create a small robot army that roams the planet paralyzing groups of humans so they can slice the human skulls up to extract the brains while the other humans watch until it's there turn. A scenario like this is completely possible. Us humans have ignorant children because it takes time to learn things. Why wouldn't that be true to some ultra-powerful alien civilization? In fact, that young alien could simply look at our internet and pull the story about the buffalo. They could use that part of our history where we killed hundreds of thousands of Buffalo just for the hide leaving the rest of the animal to rot and make a case for them to lay waste the entire human race. - Moral of the story.

I would love to visit the Andes and eat some cuy dishes, maybe take some deep frozen back home. The animals look like a cross between a deer and a beaver. And the way they barely move and just eat all day probably makes them delicious haha!

Just as a possibly useful note, fish used in sashimi like tuna and salmon are typically sold in different grades, and ones destined to be eaten raw are generally different grades from those destined to be eaten cooked, because those eaten raw have to be more carefully processed, packaged, and shipped so that they are free from other parasites (not just surface bacteria). Look up "salmon worms" on youtube as an example. I'm utterly unsure whether the same applies to bison meat, but just to be safe, I would only buy from the most well-known and recommended (and likely expensive) bison meat suppliers if you intend to eat them raw like in sashimi or tataki as Adam did here.

By a special process, don't you just mean that the meat was frozen and kept under dry ice condition (under -78C) so it kills the parasites and their eggs?

9:36 as a biologist... Yes. We are an apex predator. Even if you took out all of our technological superiority we could still be the apex predator because we are social, and the average human can run marathon. Not many animals can jog to the distances we can. There are still tribes that will run mega fauna down as a relay race. Which ends with the animal having a heat stroke as the humans crowd around it. It is pretty brutal but if all you got is sticks and rocks you found on the ground... This is how hominids had been the top predator for arguably a very long time (million years)?

As a hunter... I am happy we have rifles/bows. If we could talk to the animals, they would also probably like us shooting them from 100 yards away. Taking only good clean shots. Rather than being chased down by a pack of humans/wolves, or a big cat jumping off of a tree.

Adam had that extra shirt button undone just to really DELIVER the Tom Jones line. I can understand that. That last preparation of bison looks so mouth-watering.

I was interested in the environmental impact of Bison vs Cattle and, maybe that is another good reason for the swap to Bison. "Is Bison Healthier Than Beef? ... Environmentalists also say that grass-fed bison is a more sustainable meat choice than beef because bison keep the ecosystem in check through grazing and produce less greenhouse gas than cows. As you can see, bison meat has fewer calories, way less fat, and more protein than ground beef."

it wouldn't be a swap, nobody is considering getting rid of cattle

@@justincameron9123 That's not really how hypothetical things work. The question is not, if it would happen, but as follows, "If, for various reasons, farm animals were replaced with native species, what would the effect on climate change be from that change?"

A side point is that grazing be it buffalo or cattle has a huge importance to grasslands, physical disruption to the soil, fertilization and large animals doing things like breaking trees by scratching on them prevents shrubs and forests from taking over grasslands. When we try to establish say upland bird hunting areas a huge human effort is required to mow down brush, cut back tree growth etc.. Solid evidence is herds of bison maintained the grassland soul and created all that healthy soil thats now farmland suffering fallow fields and run off

Cows function exactly the same as bison environmentally. They’re both large, bovine ruminants. Both are great for livestock, as environmental protection and human food.

@@kaydenl6836 I think saying, "exactly the same" is an overstatement, very similar yes, exactly the same, no.
