While Americans have been calling our bisons buffalo since the 1800s, they've always been the American Bison, with the buffalo relegated to the African continent. Regardless, Native American tribes subsisted on American bison for eons, and characters like Buffalo Bill made them adored nationwide through his traveling Wild West shows. The bison Christmas ornament can be personalized with the recipient's name and the year, or you can choose to include the location of a special National Park commemorating a special encounter. Arrives with our exclusive hand tied gold cord for convenient hanging.
