I encountered this Yellowstone American Bison while traversing the North Entrance Road (Highway 212) near the Soda Butte Creek. The American Bison is an amazing animal and an icon of the park. Visitors flock to the park to see the large herds and to observe them in action.<\/p>\n<p>The Yellowstone American Bison herd in is one of the oldest and largest public bison herd in the United States. The herd was estimated in 2015 to be about 4,900 bison.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_15412\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-15412\" style=\"width: 1135px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/tkahler.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/20180208-lamar-valley-728-edit.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"15412\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/tkahler.com\/blog\/2020\/01\/yellowstone-american-bison\/yellowstone-bison\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/tkahler.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/20180208-lamar-valley-728-edit.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1135,1500\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;5.6&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;Terry B.
