Bison are slow-moving, grass-grazing quadrupeds analogous to buffalo. When enraged, they can melee and can become a threat to colonists due to their high health. They provide a large quantity of leather compared to other creatures that spawn in the same biomes, two or three Bison usually provide enough leather (or wool if you are willing to tame them) to make a parka as well as a generous amount of meat. A bison will also increase the carrying capacity of any caravan it's part of by 73.5 kg making them an excellent pack animal.

Bison stats are equivalent to muffalo except they have slightly higher move speed and market value, are more likely to aggro when harmed, and give plainleather instead of bluefur. They give bison wool instead of muffalo wool which is largely the same but has an inferior cold insulation - offering an insulation factor of ×26 instead of ×30.

Taming

Bison can be found in the following biomes: Temperate forest, Temperate swamp and Arid shrubland. They can either be tamed by a Handler or self-tame in a random event.

Bison can be bought and sold in other faction bases and from bulk goods traders. Bison purchased from traders will be already tamed.

Production

Bison can be sheared by animal handlers once every 15 days, giving 120 pieces of bison wool worth 121.5 silver.

See animal products for more details on how much each type of animal produces.
