Two Hundred Buffalo Go For a Walk
« on: May 17, 2012, 07:15:47 pm »
Two hundred buffalo stepped over a fence in Iowa and headed north.  They made it to Minnesota before being surrounded.

I read a book about raising buffalo once.  It sounded like a lot of work.  They are really hard to keep inside a fence.  The fence has to be a lot taller and stronger than those made for cattle.

When the story was posted, all but thirty had been rounded up.

They can reportedly jump six feet in the air and seven feet vertically.
Isn't a jump six feet in the air vertical?
64MPH WOW can you imagine getting hit by that, I think I would rather take on a Civic or similar.

Maybe the other 30 ended up at Ulm Pishkun.
