Wildlife photographer Isaac Spotts spends most of his time capturing the incredible animals that call Yellowstone National Park home. Recently, he was both impressed and amused when he spotted a bison sporting what he called the wildest haircut he\u2019s ever seen, and honestly, we can\u2019t disagree!<\/p>\n

This bison was massive, likely one of the dominant bulls in the park, according to Isaac, and he managed to snap a few incredible photos that show off not just the bison\u2019s sheer size, but also that unforgettable hairstyle. Which shot is your favorite?<\/p>\n

The bison<\/a> does have cool hair! Viewers also agreed that Isaac’s<\/a> bison’s pics are awesome and left more than 4,000 comments. @Meredith Cable swooned, “He’s majestic!” @SW agreed, “He\u2019s beautiful with an old soul in his eyes.”<\/p>\n

All About Bison<\/p>\n

Bison are the largest land mammals in North America. They can weigh over a ton and stand between 5 and 6.5 feet tall at the shoulder. Their curved horns can grow up to two feet long, and they are sharp. Not only are these animals big, but they are fast<\/a>; they can run up to 40 miles an hour. If there\u2019s one animal in Yellowstone you don\u2019t want to mess with<\/a>, it\u2019s the bison.<\/p>\n

Many people think that bison and buffalo are one and the same. National Park Service<\/a> explains this cool fact about them, \u201cWhile\u00a0bison and buffalo are used interchangeably, in North America the scientific name is bison. Actually, it\u2019s\u00a0Bison bison bison\u00a0(genus: Bison, species: bison, subspecies: bison), but only saying it once is fine.\u00a0Historians believe that the term \u201cbuffalo\u201d grew from the French word for beef, \u201cboeuf.\u201d<\/p>\n

And here’s one more cool fact: \u201cYellowstone National Park<\/a> is the only place in the U.S. where bison have continuously lived since prehistoric times.\u00a0What makes Yellowstone\u2019s bison so special is that they\u2019re the\u00a0pure descendants (free of cattle genes) of early bison\u00a0that roamed our country\u2019s grasslands. As of July 2015, Yellowstone\u2019s bison population was estimated at 4,900\u2014making it the largest bison population on public lands.\u201d So, if you want to see\u00a0bison running free, Yellowstone is the place to check them out!<\/p>\n
