Museum of the Buffalo

On the long drive from Medora to Deer River, Minnesota, we stopped in Jamestown, North Dakota for a break.  Jamestown is a good-sized town for North Dakota, right off the interstate.

To bring in the tourists, Jamestown has a Prairie Village and Museum of the Buffalo.  I saw good reviews for the museum on TripAdvisor, so we decided to check it out.

They have a herd of bison that grazes in a pasture the museum owns.  One of the herd is a white bison and we were lucky to see it in the fields beyond the parking lot, grazing with some other bison.

We enjoyed our time in the museum.  It has many exhibits, including donations from contributors such as tools made out of bison bone by indians, real arrowheads and stone hammers, and art that depicts bisons and bison hunts.
