Yes, the American Bison (the Woodland Bison in particular) is the largest native herbivore weighing in at up to 2,200 pounds. Domestically bred individuals have been recorded at 3,800 pounds. It is the largest native animal in the USA,
A buffalo soldier - a descriptive reference contrived by North American first nations people in the 1800's in reference to males of African ancestry.
Cows, sheep, goats and water buffalo all give us milk.
There is a great assortment of products that we benefit from having, that generate from the milk from these animals.
It's hard to imagine a world without milk and cheese, and all the things those ingredients go into.

No. They are not native to the state and any that are there have been brought in by zoos or people who breed them for their meat. Buffalo meat is high in protein and low in calories.
Yes. The area they live in gets snow in the winter and the wind blows a lot all year around. The herds would move eating the grass. They ranged all over the center of the United States in the 1500's and there were 7 million at one point.
They can, most certainly! Though not as dangerous as a hippo, they certainly will go out of their way to attack you if you provoke them into doing it, whether you mean it or not.
They probably made agricultural tools and weapons.
the bullalo eats the grass the humen eats the buffalo and when the humon dies it turs in to soial andd the soial is turner in to grass
Small dinosaurs were much smaller than humans. Epidexipteryx was only 9.8 inches long and weighed a few ounces. The largest well known dinosaur, Argentinosaurus, was 100 to 115 feet long and weighed 50 to 73 tons. That's as long as 19 men laying end to end, and as heavy as 975 people!
Powder Horns are made by cleaning out the inside and sanding down the inside of the horn to make them lighter and translucent (so you can see the amount of powder in it when held up to the light). A hole is drilled from the pointed end into the hollow horn. The large end is plugged and the tip is finished with a removal plug. Buffalo horns are large diameter and heavy. I've seen one that was flattened so it appeared more like a flask. Otherwise, there is no real difference in making a powder horn from a buffalo horn.
Plains Bison weigh from 1320 to 2200 lb(600 to 1000 kg) and stand 6 feet tall.Wood Bison weigh from 1760 to 3300 lb(800 to 1500 kg) and stand 6.6 feet tall. Wisent(European Bison) weigh 1540 to 2200 lb(700 to 1000 kg) and stand up to 7 feet tall and all of them are 14 feet long.
Buffalos are herd animals like cattle and horses, and retain groups because of the need to repel or escape predators.
Not too much, really. Bison are commonly referred to as the large-humped, small hollow-horned, furry-headed beasts that existed by the millions on the Great Plains (called the Plains or American Bison I believe) and are also found up in northern Canada as Woodlands Bison. Bison of North America are also called Buffalo, but bison has been created as a more proper term, since there are "true" buffalo that exist in the world, such as the Cape Buffalo and the Water Buffalo, both found in Africa and India, respectively.
On the humorous side
There really isn't any difference, with the exception that you cannot wash your hands in a buffalo.
Think about it a bit. You have to be British to understand the differentiation.
