These 14 Baby Bison Will Make You Proud To Call Them Our National Mammal


On today's episode of "Barrack Obama is the Man," our president signs a bill declaring that the North American bison is our national mammal, because why not?

The National Bison Legacy Act — which is a real thing that exists — positions the bison as one of our national animals because it played an important role in westward expansion. That being said, the dudes behind the expansion were notorious for sipping on that haterade since they nearly drove these animals to extinction, depriving Native Americans of a valuable food source in the process.
Fortunately, conservationists have brought the North American bison back from the brink. To celebrate their newfound distinction, let's take a look at some baby bison being adorable.
