oh...they used to run about 500 of them off a cliff and then go down and skin eight or ten of them.  That's where we learned about conservation.

When you get right up next to these things they are a lot bigger than they look from a distance.  They have really long black tongues too my brother and I fed some of them some bread the thing couldn't even get it's nose in the car window thats how big they are. It was really funny.   I think you should hunt from a horse and use a bow just for the pucker factor
you'd probably be suction stuck to the saddle for a day or two.

They won't let me hunt them. I have probably as many in my state as anyone out there, and I can't even hunt them. It figures.

Obviously! If I was, I would have to run them off a cliff. Think I would rather shoot one. At least the one I did shoot wasn't corraled, so to speak. I went out to where they were grazing, got set up in a tree line, and when the one came close enough, I shot. They didn't know we were there. It was like hunting, except not as exciting. I will have to find a place to hunt them for real some day. I do have to say they are spooky though. The first ones we set up to shoot spooked, and there would be no shots fired there.

Just this past weekend 2 Buffalo were shot on Safari Joes wildlife Sanctuary east of Tulsa. Someone shot them through the fence and left them. A$$ holes. Crap like this really hurts Hunters. Sheriff is investigating.
Folks ain't got a sense of humor no more. They don't laugh they just get sore.

Need to follow the rules. Just hard to determine which set of rules to follow
Now the rules have changed again.

Find them and string 'em up. These people are not hunters and should not be looked at or treated as such.

Safari Joe is a sanctuary for retired zoo animals. It is supported entirely by donations. Last winter the big barn burned and they lost a lot of animals. The petting zoo has been closed all year trying to rebuild. They have Lions and tigers leopards and lynx. along with many other exotic animals. It is a great place to visit. It will be good when they reopen to the public. The Buffalo is just another set back. Here is a link.   http://www.safarijoes.org/

It is sad that somebody would ruin such a thing for so many people for the few minutes they got out of it. Then to leave the animals just laying there makes me sick.
