A buffalo ranch is a type of farm where buffalo, specifically the American bison, are raised. These ranches focus on breeding and caring for buffalo for various purposes, including meat production, conservation, and tourism. Buffalo ranches often provide a natural habitat for the animals, allowing them to roam freely in large pastures. Many buffalo ranches also engage in educational activities, teaching visitors about the importance of bison in American history and ecology. Some ranches offer guided tours, where people can learn about the animals' behavior, diet, and the ranching process. This helps promote awareness and appreciation for these iconic creatures.
