		Bison is one of the best tasting of all meats; this is my opinion, and apparently the opinion of many others, as this red meat has rapidly been appearing on the menus of fine restaurants throughout the world over the last decade.
		Bison also happens to be one of the most nutritious meats on earth, which is why I eat it more than any other meat, and recommend it so highly to you.
		Bison, also known as buffalo, is a highly nutrient dense food because of the proportion of protein and minerals in relation to its caloric value.

	Waitrose.com - Bison Grass Vodka - Waitrose Food Illustrated
		The name Zubrówka is derived from zubr, or bison, for which Bialowieza is renowned, because the vodka is aromatised with the grass that is a favourite bovine snack.
		A special treat is the fragrant grass Hierochloe odorata, the smell of which excites a bison in the same way as the scent of truffles turns on a pig.
		Being the only grass to be processed, the consignment from Bialowieza is taken immediately to the double-volume macerator, surrounded by copper piping and pressure valves in the extraction hall.

	Choose Grassfed Bison
		Grass-fed bison are raised in pastures and are never exposed to management practices which include feedlots or feedlot finishing.

	Bison Production
		Bison and cattle have never been reported to have CWD; however, some consumers may have heard misinformation and be concerned about CWD crossing from elk to bison or cattle.
		Bison are therefore “non-amenable” (not covered or answerable) under the Federal Meat Inspection Act and are exempt from FSIS requirements for meat inspection for intra-state, interstate, and foreign trade.
		Bison relate to each other through a strict “pecking order.” The strongest bull will be the dominant animal in the herd, whose job it is to protect and breed, but the dominant cow will be the herd leader.

		Calloway always had held a deep admiration for the bison, or American buffalo, which, at weights of up to 2,000 pounds, is the largest land animal in North America.
		For example, he says, bison can smell grass beneath 3 feet or more of snow and will sweep snow away with their faces to get to it.
		In addition to membership in the National Bison Association and the Eastern Bison Association, the Calloways belong to the Eastern States Bison Cooperative, based in Lancaster County, Pa. Bulls at Gobbs Hill are dehorned and raised there until they weigh 800 pounds, about two years old.

		Our bison have never been sick, but a chute system can be invaluable for treating minor injuries (we have experienced scratched eyes, broken horns, an impacted hoof, a subdermal infection), testing for specific diseases, and weighing.
		The only truth that bison can forage food in the winter is that they are able to "plow" their head into the snow to get at grass; cattle won't do that.
		Bison are WILD animals; you can't keep them in a stall; they would tear it down in a second.

		Grass fed. We are particularly interested in the proposed term "grass fed." We believe this deserves a more accurate description in order to help the consumer make a correct and informed purchasing decision.
		Variations of this term include "grass grown", "grass raised", "pastured [beef, swine, poultry]" etc. All of these terms imply the animals are finished on grass, though that clearly is not the case in the proposed descripion.
		For example: "Grass finished" applies to animals which have been grass fed their entire lives; may receive a minimum amount of wheat based "cake" as mineral supplements, and dried grass or hay during winter months.

		The Bison Grass Production Committee of the National Bison Association considers that the current proposal to allow animals having a diet of 80 percent grass to be labeled as grass-fed is unacceptable.
		(Jenkins, 2003) The National Bison Association therefore recommends that the label of ?Grass-Fed? be allowed only for animals that have been, from birth to harvest, grazed on grass, legumes and forages as 95 percent or more of their primary energy source and have received only seasonal supplements that do not exceed 30 percent starch content.
		Recognizing that unusual and extraordinary circumstances may interrupt the ability of producers to provide a consistent diet of grass, the National Bison Association recommends that the new regulation provide an allowance for a temporary variance similar to that provided under §§205.290 of the National Organic Program.

		A major focus of the report was on bison meat, given the massive herds that once roamed the prairies.
		The vast majority of Americans are aware of the bison option—though only a quarter of that 90 percent actually consume it—compared to 63 percent of Canadians and a mere six percent of Mexicans.
		Though it does cost considerably more—as do organic and grass-fed cattle, both of which are leaner alternatives to hormone-produced or grain-fed beef—the survey revealed market potential with many consumers stating their willingness to spend more for organic and grass-fed meats, though less so for the later as it has yet to become a buzzword.
