[QUOTE="madcapmagishion, post: 87877, member: 9159"] Technically they are American Bison, colloquially they are referred to as Buffalo. When I was a child one of my parents best friends was a famous photographer who had a Buffalo skin rug on the floor in his library. He once told me the story of how he got the Buffalo skin ... he was engaged to take a photo of a ranchers prized American Bison in Montana one year. So he is flown up there and gets all of his lighting gear set up. He signals he's ready and they lead the buffalo in and "pose" him for the photo shoot. He triggers his multiple flashes and the buffalo drops over dead from a heart attack, from the strobes. So now he has a Buffalo skin rug. ;) True story! [/QUOTE]
