There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Bison, Yaks, and Oxen - Subfamily Bovinae.

There were several bison subspecies living in North America during the last Ice Age besides our two survivors, the plains bison ( Bison bison bison ) and the larger wood bison ( Bison bison athabascae ). There was the ancient bison ( Bison bison antiquus ), the steppe bison ( Bison priscus ), and the giant bison ( Bison latifrons ). The giant bison had a horn-span of 7 feet and could weigh from 2,500 pounds upward to 4,000 pounds.
