Card Text Back: Buffalo Hunt - For the high plains Indian, the buffalo was a source for many needed items, fresh meat in hunting periods and jerky for lean times. Their hides made rugs, moccasins and so forth. The buffalo was not an easy animal for the Indian to hunt. Against the strong tough beast, spears and arrows were not too effective. One of the favorite hunting methods, as depicted here, was to stampede the animals over small cliffs. Thus injured, they were easily dispatched by the hunters.

Card Text Back: Custer State Park is "home" for all the buffalo seen in the recent MGM cinemascope picture "The Last Hunt." This herd is largest in the United States. Because of the large area of Custer State Park - approximately 125 square miles - and because of the buffalo's natural desire for privacy - they often seek out the more remote places in the area.
