What the Buffalo Know

QUOTE: "Karsten Heuer helped bring bison back to Banff. Facing his own end, he reflected with amazement on how nature remembers."

EXCERPT: "The Blackfoot Elder and scholar Duane Mistaken Chief says that the buffalo just make a natural teacher. Whenever there is a great storm, the bison don’t retreat or tremble in fear. They turn into the storm and face it. The Blackfoot call that kind of gumption aksistooyiipaitapissin.

I think Heuer learned that lesson too."
