A Rare White Bison Was Born Into A Herd Belonging To The Sioux Valley Dakota Nation

Tacan said he wasn't sure the odds are of the white buffalo being born, but it's the first one the community's herd has seen since his mother was welcomed into the herd more than six years ago. He said the community has had requests to bring the buffalo out and put it on display at fairs and other events, but the community is opting to keep it in the pasture instead. I don't think we'd want to display her [the mother] in that sort of way, said Tacan. It's a sacred animal... If you want to see it you'd have to come out here.
