  1. Wow, what do you think killed it? Posted 11 years ago
    1. There is one pack of wolves in Yellowstone, the Molly Mountain Pack that are known to kill bison. But I suspect that this one most likely died of natural causes, or old age. The skull is the size of a grown man's torso! Posted 11 years ago

The American bison is a North American species of bison that once roamed the grasslands of North America in massive herds. Their range once roughly comprised a triangle between the Great Bear Lake in Canada's far northwest, south to the Mexican states of Durango and Nuevo León, and east along the western boundary of the Appalachian Mountains.
