Description

Out on the prairie, where the grass ripples for miles and the sky seems twice as big as anywhere else, the herd moves slowly across the plain at dawn. One old bull lifts his great shaggy head and sniffs the wind. He has seen blizzards, droughts, and more tourists with cameras than he cares to count. Today, he looks almost as if he should be wearing a cowboy hat. Perhaps, in his heart, he always has been. Nobody on the ranch would dare argue with him.

This charming buffalo is a perfect present for anyone who loves the West, whether they live on a ranch in Montana, visited Yellowstone last summer, or simply dream of open skies and campfire coffee. Give it to a rodeo fan, a cowboy at heart, a graduate of a Western university or a friend moving to Wyoming or the Dakotas. The tiny hat lifts off and can be set aside or perched back on his head. Beneath the lid, a small keepsake can travel with him.
