BUFFALO

THERE ARE FEW ANIMALS AS MAJESTIC AS THE AMERICAN
BISON.  WE WERE ABLE TO ACQUIRE TWO FEMALE CALVES
THIS PAST SUMMER.  ONE WE BOTTLE FED AND IT IS AS TAME
AS ANY ANIMAL ON THE FARM.  THE OTHER WAS A LITTLE
OLDER AND IS VERY MUCH A WILD ANIMAL.  THE LONG TERM
PLAN IS TO CROSS BREED THEM WITH THE BELTED GALLOWAY
CATTLE AND SEE WHAT A COMBINATION WILL BE LIKE.  I AM
PATIENTLY WAITING FOR THE BUFFALO TO GET OLD ENOUGH
TO BREED.

KOKOMO WAS RAISED ON A BOTTLE SO SHE
FOLLOWS YOU AROUND LIKE A DOG.  SHE
RECENTLY WENT TO THE "TRAIL OF COURAGE"
WHERE MANY CHILDREN WERE ABLE TO PET HER.  
SHE STOOD THERE AND ENJOYED THE DAY WITH
EVERYONE.  SHE REALLY HAS NO CONCEPT THAT
SHE IS SUPPOSED TO BE A WILD ANIMAL.  
ANOTHER YEAR AND ABOUT ANOTHER 500 POUNDS
MAY CHANGE HOW MUCH SHE IS ALLOWED TO
WALK AROUND THE YARD.
