A large herd of bison lives on an island in the Great Salt Lake. People round up the herd every year.

Each bison gets a checkup. Some are sold. The rest stay on the island. But there will be another roundup next year.

Proverbs 27:23 says, “Know well the condition of your flocks, and give attention to your herds.” Is it a bison or a buffalo? Bison live in North America. Water buffalo and Cape buffalo do not.
