This is what it looks like when tourists come upon a bison herd, or the wild burros at the park. I was trapped, and the bulls were restless...tourists don't get that bison will attack people or cars...
Aw look, the cute, wiry, red-haired calves are here too...
Hey, wait a minute! I totally forgot that calves don't stay red, duh! So it was a jolt to realize Sun. that most of the calves have turned brown! This calf is still red, but looks like it's outlined in brown!
This calf is all brown and has horn buds. The hair becomes smoother when it browns up.
This calf must've been an early arrival; it's got more horn growth than any others I saw in the herd Sun. And it has the thick 'do on its head.
Stop and visit the bison and then go directly to the body shop to get those dents repaired;) We have a herd just down the road. They are living the life of domestic cattle rather than wild bison.

We had a bull chase us down the road last summer right in front of the Norbeck Visitor Center. He came on the run down the slope, scared my visiting mother-in-law half to death. I was sure we'd be making a trip to our favorite body shop, but got out of his way. He sure looked like he meant business
