I have a herd of 200+,been raising them since 96. been in dairy and beef for 30 years before that, Bison beats them all by a country mile as far as the workload and the cost of keeping goes. no calving troubles,no vet cost other than deworming,cheaper feeding,graze all winter if you have the pasture or you can winter feed them once a day or for a month or more with no waste,and go on vacation. They won't overload on grain either,altough i can't figger out wy anyone would want to grain them to start with.no bedding needed,no branding,dehorning or castrating,easy handling if you know what you are doing.with the right setup 1 guy can bring them in and do all the sorting by himself without yelling and hollering. I can't believe that not more people are raising them.The meat is superb, but most people dont know how to cook it properly. rare to medium rare. if you like your meat done, eat beef instead. The only thing that needs to change is the UTM rule with the BSE bullshit[politician IDIOTS]
Sorry for the long post. It might change some peoples mind about these magnificient animals.
