We welcome you to the WorldofBison.com. We here love everything bison related. The bison the largest land mammal in North America. The American bison is often used in North America in official seals, flags, and logos. In the United States, the American Bison is a popular symbol in the Great Plains states. Kansas, Oklahoma, and Wyoming have adopted the animal as their official state mammal, and many sports teams have chosen the bison as their mascot, including North Dakota State University. In Canada, the bison is used in the official coat of arms of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.
Several American coins feature the bison, perhaps most famously on on the reverse side of the buffalo nickel from 1913 to 1938. In 2005, the United States Mint coined a nickel with a new depiction of the bison as part of its “Westward Journey” series. The Kansas and North Dakota state quarters, part of the 50 State Quarter series, each feature bison. The Kansas state quarter only has the bison and does not feature any writing, while the North Dakota state quarter has two bison.
There are also numerous health benefits to using bison meat over beef. These benefits and more are found throughout our site.
