bison developed synergistically with the Great Plains themselves
after the ice ages, and so it comes as no surprise their modern
descendents thrive on the native grasses still flourishing
on Montana’s ranges today. With rich (if shallow) soils
and a relatively short growing season, these grasses are “nutrient
dense”, and consequently bison flesh boasts a densely
rich concentration of essential minerals and vitamins. Also,
the natural healthy oils currently in the spotlight, Omega 3
essential fatty acids, occur in abundance in prairie plants.
Bison are protein machines on the hoof, perfectly adapted to
harvest this bountiful resource. When allowed to graze naturally,
their meat combines lower calorie content than domestic meats,
with dense concentrations of nutrients. It simply does not require
as much bison meat to satisfy, and more than that, it will leave
you without the bloated feeling that results from fattier meats.
It is habit forming, however, and if you make it a regular part
of your diet there is no going back…
Foraging
animals naturally consume some seeds, particularly in late summer
and fall, but when they are confined and force-fed a grain-intensive
diet, these natural processes are circumvented, to the benefit
of none except perhaps giant agribusiness. Our buffalo freely
roam individual pastures measuring in the dozens of thousands
of acres, and an overall ranch well in excess of a hundred thousand.
The forage conditions are outstanding, in truly climax condition,
and by harvesting natural protein from this rich resource you
not only enjoy fantastically good eating, but participate in
a cycle of nature that is very well designed. All flesh is indeed
grass.
