Fencing in those monsters is a rather dicey proposition. I've seen details on it. 8" diameter wood posts @ 10'-0" on center, with 10 strands of barbed wire 12" apart vertically. The cost runs on par with deer high fence, which is somewhere between $15,000 - $20,000 per mile.
Bison are amazingly strong, and have the brains of an ice cube. You do not want to go toe to toe with one of these animals - they will give you the New Look mighty quickly.
An expedient oxygen absorber for a 5 gallon storage container can be made by placing a golf ball size piece of steel wool and a tablespoon of salt inside a paper napkin and placing it in the container. The salt will absorb the residual moisture and the steel wool will naturally absorb the oxygen.

Make Your Own Electrolyte Beverage (Gatorade, Pedialyte, etc.)
To one quart of water add 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 8 teaspoons of granulated sugar. Thoroughly mix all ingredients together.
This will replace electrolytes lost by the body due to dehydration caused by diarrhea, vomiting, excessive sweating, etc. A package of Kool-Aid, Crystal Light, etc. may be added to enhance the flavor and color.

They get a lot of "respect" from myself.
Respect = lot of distance between them and me!
Thanks anon!
