    I swear, I don’t know why anyone watches a video on a livestock channel just to complain about the animal. Yes people, Bison were almost wiped out but thanks to ranchers who care about this animal they are able to exist and thrive again. The fact that there are sales and interest in these bison goes to show that their numbers are once again increasing and that’s a great thing for humans and bison!

    I remember several years ago a man had a white buffalo calf born. Ted Turner offered the guy a million dollars for it and he turned it down. His reason had to do with respect for Native Americans' culture about the white buffalo . As the buffalo grew its coat color changed colors and ended up a color only a little lighter than a normal buffalo.

As it was explained to our family, the white buffalo coat goes through color changes the reflect the Native American belief of the Four Colors of Man (White to Yellow to Red to Black) to whom the are to bestow a blessing upon their arrival. We felt seeing her was quite a blessing for us. She was a magestic creature and quite social.

    If it were an Albinoi it would likely have pink eyeballs. Myself I would not want mix breed Bison/Cattle. You should have an idea of the Bisons that you want, that would come with experience. I would be more interested in size, coloration, and ease of handling them rather than shooting for a price. Buying from an individual rather than an auction you can get a lot more information from the Rancher on the history of the animals heritage.

    I remember going to an auction near San Angelo, Texas with my great grandaddy Ed and my grandfather Ray. I was probably about 8 years old, and all about the animals and ranch life (some things never change), begging to go with. Didn't hurt that Both those sweet men adored the little girl I was back then. I saw a group of 4-5 white buffalo there. My remembrance is that they were second generation from bison crossed with Charolaise. Or maybe it was another "fancy-sounding" breed. I was just a kid, but breeding small animals was already in my wheelhouse, with dreams of breeding horses and cattle, so I soaked up knowledge on the subject like a sponge. After the auction, we all went to visit a nearby client of Grandaddy Ed's (a Scurry County veterinarian) who had bison and sheep outside of town. They had a bottle baby bison calf at the time and I think I had a shot of taking it home with me, just for a moment there. Momma would'a had a cow! ;)

      They would have been crossed with Charolais, and they were the only Continental breed (Fullblood) in Mexico at the time. Due to Europe not having Brucellosis under control, it wasn't until 1968 in Canada that European breeds were allowed ot be imported, and I think 1970 for the USA.

    Noah enjoyed your video. Wow a white bison. How beautiful she was. How much did she sell for??? Trying to understand auction talk has always been difficult. They talk so fast. I really love this video. I use to go to cattle auctions at Eldorado, Kansas as a kid. I enjoyed going and seeing at the cows, calves& bulls come through the gate and try to get out. That bull at the end was mad he was scraping his hooves in the dirt. Good job.

    I wonder if later in life Auctioneers develop mouth issues. My jaw would be locked up for two weeks. I am constantly amazed how they move so many bison through those bison gates. When they focus on one bison they can steer them in the direction they want to go. Was that one bison towards the end were they about ready to charge the fence? I imagine that mixed breed white bison did not bid as high as the pure breed bison?

    • @BrokenArrowBison
      @BrokenArrowBison  2 года назад +4

      Yes it is a marvel of getting everything to work just great! Yes he actually did charge the fence he hit it pretty hard you could hear in the video though. She sold for somewhere around $4000 just because people think it’s a novelty just to have a white buffalo. Even if she’s not pure breed.

    An explanation is provided that a White Buffalo is extremely rare. That is accurate. A White Buffalo, as shown, is likely the product of a Buffalo and a domestic cow with a white coat. That sounds likely. It is noted that the White Buffalo shown is, in turn, not a purebreed (purebred?). Actually, it's mostly like very few of the buffalo at the show are purebred. Most buffalo now living are genetically descended from cattle and buffalo both.
