"The American bison (Bison bison), also commonly known as the American buffalo"
"Some consider the term "buffalo" somewhat of a misnomer for this animal...However, "bison" is a Greek word meaning ox-like animal, while "buffalo" originated with the French fur trappers who called these massive beasts bœufs, meaning ox or bullock – so both names, "bison" and "buffalo," have a similar meaning. In reference to this animal, the term "buffalo," which dates to 1635, has a much longer history than the term "bison," which was first recorded in 1774. |
