[QUOTE="Son of Butch, post: 1426392, member: 14585"] Weren't buffalo nearly extinct, at one time down to less than a dozen head? No choice left but to inbreed to bring their population back up. Decide to search my own question... current buffalo population 500,000 dna testing estimates only 15,000 - 20,000 are pure buffalo and testing has traced them to 12 founding ancestors with the current balance of 480,000 all containing some domestic cattle dna making them hybrids Making 29 out of 30 identified as buffalo actually buffalo hybrids [/QUOTE]
