Through a combination of facts, anecdotes, and legends, they will discover how the surprisingly agile buffalo moves on tiptoe as it picks its way along narrow ledges and how it sometimes goes swimming just for fun. They will read about "buffalo birds" that warm their feet in the thick fur on buffaloes backs and will find out why the birth of a white buffalo is so miraculous. They will also discover how buffaloes nearly disappeared from our planet a hundred years ago, but were saved just in time.
