Buffalo graveyard.

Don’t go there is you don’t want vengeful buffalo spirits to gore you to death.

The Tribal elders didn't like this method of harvesting buffalo. It was extremely wasteful and could mean a life-threatening shortage of buffalo in the near future.

But the young bucks saw plenty of bison and dismissed these concerns. I know this from studying various "winter count" calendars under the tutelage of tribal elders in a previous life.

I drive by the big white teepee next to Vore Buffalo Jump at least twice a week. I visited it last summer. It’s worth the visit but, if you want to see it outside of tourist season, call ahead to make sure that it is open.

The site website says it was used for 400 years. That works out to 50 buffalo a year. That wouldn't have impacted the total population of buffalo.

While it’s the families name, “Vore” is also a slang term for a weird sexual fetish.

“The slang term “vore” means a rare sexual fetish where someone experiences sexual arousal from imagining swallowing or devouring someone whole or from being swallowed or devoured whole. For some, it can include chewing people up or being chewed up as well.”

Oddly appropriate in this case, though.

It makes sense and was likely made by the native North Americans before they began to obtain rifles from westerners.

Such a trap, and then herding the buffalo into it would make a lot of sense. Modern folks cannot put it into their modern context because that hpyocrisy would ignore how they obtain meat for THEIR diets. Ever seen a beef slaughterhouse or a farm raising calves for veal???

The Vore Buffalo Jump National Historic Site is about six miles from the South Dakota border near Interstate 90.

Native Americans wisely used their precious resources, as they slaughtered all megafauna to extinction on both continents.

All the cute large talking animals in the animated Ice Age movies aren’t around for a reason.

I’m not criticizing the societies for eating the critters, I’m criticizing leftists for twisting history into attacking western culture.
