- This video features the bison rut from July 28th-30th in the northern part of Yellowstone National Park - mostly Slough Creek and Lamar Valley. The rut is the mating season for bison.
The call that you hear the male bison making is called a bellow. It is a low, rumbling sound that can be heard up to three miles away. The bellow is used to announce the male's presence and establish dominance within the herd. It is also used to attract females.
It is an incredible experience hearing the bison bulls bellow for hours day after day, following the cows that they pair up with while they try to avoid losing them to other bulls. At the end of the video, you see a bull and cow cross the road with 3 other bison bulls still in pursuit of the paired up cow.
Please consider following @BigSkyWildlife for more wildlife videos, especially Yellowstone wildlife and North American carnivores.
I agree with you vision are majestic and beautiful and the bulk bison bellows loudly and the bison cows and calves are beautiful
Thank you. I hope that you get the chance to see bison in the wild someday, it is a much different experience than seeing them in zoos.
Bigskywildlife,I wish that I could travel to go see wild bison herds but due to my health issues and being on a monthly disability funds and on a tight budget I can't afford to travel and due to my low vision loss and limited vision I can't travel by myself
It sounds like my husband's snoring 😂
😂
I think they're majestic animals. I would love to see one in the wild before I depart this earth. 😎
They are amazing animals. There are a number of bison herds in the Western states, not just here in Yellowstone. I hope you are able to see them in person someday.
Any thoughts on European bison? @@bigskywildlife
I was lucky and blessed to run beside one. My one wish is to see one again before I leave. The experience is impossible to describe. It left an impression that l can't put into words.
Seeing a bison in the wild was on my bucket list and luckily I did go to Yellowstone and see them. A great and humbling experience.
They are something else! Fantastic animal live. Hard to get a feel for the size on video.
Nice. We were there on those dates also. Just had finished a 5 day 65 mile back country trip down in the Bechler Meadows area, SW Yellowstone.
Didn't see any bear or elk and just 2 moose, a doe and fawn, several fox and other small mammals.
The bison, though, were pretty plentiful going up to Lamar.
Good job catching the vocalization. Thanks.
It sounds like you had an amazing back country trip. I'm glad that you enjoyed the video. Hopefully you will see some bears and wolves on your next trip to Yellowstone.
Not until now! Just think of how magnificent it would have been to see the herds of bison before they got slaughtered.
Nahhhh
Nahhhh?! LOL!!! @@Jason-gg4lm
We are slowly recovering the bison population in the western states of the US. Not close to the 20-30 million bison that once roamed the West of course. It is amazing to see hundreds of them at a time in Lamar Valley in Yellowstone.
Just imagine, if you will, 20 to 30 million buffalo roaming the plains! Estimates of bison numbers vary from 30 to 75 million. 50,000,000 to 60,000,000 are the most common numbers cited as total buffalo population in the early 1800s. Multiple Causes of the Bison “Crash” It's very well documented that over-hunting was a dominant factor in the near-extinction of the buffalo.@@bigskywildlife
...Baby do you want me... ...I want you, I need you... Sing it big boys
Is he trying to whisper in her ear?? 😊
I think so 😂
So how many of you attempted to make the same sound and found out that you can't? 😮🤪🤣
I know a guy that can make that sound! Just, umm, not out of his mouth.....
Well that opens up a whole new way of looking at it! 🤣😂@@Ch-ui6mw
I have seen bison in zoos and on bison farm videos on you tube,but I would like to see them in herds in the wild
I hope that you get the chance to see the bison herds in the wild someday. Thanks for watching the video. I will be posting more bison videos soon.
Hi bigskywildlife,yes I have heard bison bulls bellowing and it is loud and sounds weird but beautiful at the same time.All wild animals should be respected and tourists should stay away from them and follow the Rangers orders.I wash the yellowstone wildlife videos and it makes me upset,angry and frustrated that too many tourists are getting hurt and killed because they are told by Rangers etc not to go near a wild animal just to take a picture of it or just to see what will happen if the try to touch it or to stress it out,then a tourist gets badly hurt or killed.Stupid people
I don't watch the videos of captured bison.
Clearly, they are in a rut.
😂
I try to stay out of their way. Bison go wherever they want.
They definitely do. The healthy bulls are so big, they don't have be afraid of any predators in the park.
I also would love to see some buffalos in the wild before I die ❤ I also want to pet one because they look so soft on their manes 😀
I hope you can come to Yellowstone to see the wild bison someday. There are also other amazing parks in the US and Canada that have bison as well.
@@bigskywildlife Thanks I would be in Heaven if I was lucky enough to visit Yellowstone and see the bison ❣️
Sounds like he drank too much Dr Pepper
😂
Been going for many, many years...we call it...the " Rut-grunt"
Glad to hear that you have experienced the bison rut in person. Highly recommended!
@@bigskywildlife Been going to Yellowstone since I was a little kid...now retired, but still go every chance I get. During rut, those bulls mean business lol
Extremely Beautiful BUT lil terrifyingly..😀😀👈🏾👈🏾
Thanks. Check out my latest video of a bison herd running, bucking, and locking horns. czcams.com/video/xDLOzeUAODE/video.html
Sounds like a bad case of indigestion. Realistically I think it has something to do with mating...It's the boys making these noises.
You are correct. The call that you hear the male bison making is called a bellow. It is a low, rumbling sound that can be heard up to three miles away. The bellow is used to announce the male's presence and establish dominance within the herd. It is also used to attract females.
