Was the bison smart?

I hope you are asking ''ARE bison smart?'' as they still exist. My answer would have to be, yes. Many people like to place them in the same mentality as domestic cattle; however, bison, not being domestic, have much better survival instincts. One example that comes to mind is that a bison will dig through drifts of snow to get to the grass buried beneath it to eat, where many breeds of domestic cattle do not instinctively know to do that, and can starve to death in a snow covered field unless fed hay. Of course, this is only my opinion, I have never tested either animal for intelligence, mostly because I have been unsuccessful in getting the bison to hold a pencil.

What is the difference between bison meat and beef?

Bison meat is leaner and better for you than cow meat. It's also much dryer. I'm not sure why this is but it does have a good flavor. A good bison burger can be found at the Native American Museum in Washington, D.C.

Beef can be lean as well, especially if it's from cattle grazed on grass. However, it is still not as lean as that from bison. It has a stronger taste than beef, and is healthier because it is more leaner. The "drier" part is merely from the way it's cooked; it shouldn't be cooked like beef, but rather much slower and longer than you would with beef.

How did the Indians make brushes from buffalo tongue?

No, they are two separate species: Cape Buffalo are from Africa and possess the scientific name Syncerus caffer and Water Buffalo are from Asia, with the scientific name Bubalus bubalis. Cape Buffalo are also larger and more muscular than water buffalo, and look quite different from Water Buffalo. For instance: A cape buffalo's horns come together at the poll and curve out and up on either side of their heads. A water buffalo's horns grow more to the back of the animal. The Cape Buffalo can also bellow like domestic cattle, along with a series of other vocalizations. Water buffalo only make grunting sounds.

How do buffaloes eat?

Buffalo eat just like cattle do: they wrap their tongues around a tuft of grass, pull it in, and keep pulling using the lower incisors to help tear the grass from its "stems." They keep doing this until they get a mouthful of grass. They chew it for a little, then swallow, and continue as mentioned above. This is called "grazing." When their stomachs are full, they find a quiet place to stand around or lay in (like a mud-hole), and regurgitate the partly-digested grass from their rumen and rechew it as cud.
