Over the weekend I went to a bison auction for ranchers from around the Western U.S. and Canada put on by the Western Bison Association. I've posted a few photos below and
you can see more here. Enjoy.

| Gary Mason hopes the fence as he chases a group of three bison towards the auction arena at the Wild West Buffalo Stampede Show and Sale at the Golden Spike Event Center in Ogden on Saturday, Dec. 7, 2013. The Western Bison Association brought their own fencing to the show since large bison can destroy typical livestock fencing. (BENJAMIN ZACK/Standard-Examiner) |
