Greetings! My entry to @tobetada’s Love The Clouds.
Not far from my house is Buffaloland where over 60 buffalo roam. Some have babies, I will mention how, later in this post.
The babies retain the orange colored fur until they are older and then their coat changes to the dark brown of the adult buffalo.
On a beautiful day, the clouds are big and fluffy over the herd. The gentle buffalo peacefully graze on the green grass.
Time for an afternoon siesta.
Buffalo are not native to PEI but the original two were a gift from Alberta in 1973. Since then they have gone forth and multiplied.
At one time the herd was culled to keep it under control and the meat was sold. Since the Buddhists women took over care of the herd they do not cull but sterile the males.
How the babies are there…
One crafty male managed to escaped sterilization. I’’m happy he did as it is so nice to see babies in the field.
