Buffalo and Bison
The terms ‘buffalo’ and ‘bison’ are obviously very common in this business. They’re used so often, and sometimes interchangeably, that the average person might not know the distinction. There are very important differences between them that the consumer needs to know.
Explorers of North America often encountered animals they had never seen before. Bison were one of these. And so, because they resembled African buffalo, they called this animal buffalo as well. And so, when you hear the term ‘American Buffalo’, what they’re really talking about is a particular species of bison native to North America.
Actual buffalo—not bison—are native to Africa and India. When someone says, ‘African buffalo’, they are referring to a variety of species of buffalo, and not bison like the ‘American buffalo’.
