minus-squarecaptainlezbianlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·9 months agoYeah farmed bison is certainly a specialty meat, but not a rare one. And yes, wild is an endangered species
minus-squareCortlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·9 months agoIirc a lot of the farmed bison is from bison that we hybridized with cows. So not technically the same as wild bison
minus-squareloweffortname@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up7·9 months agoThat’s true, although some groups are trying to preserve non “cattle ingressed” bison. Like these guys: https://americanprairie.org/
