ummm
have a couple buffalo herds where i live,they seem to be doing fine
Yes, they are doing fine NOW, over 200 years after the 'Indian wars' and buffalo bounties, due the dedicated efforts on the part of conservationists to bring the heards back to viability levels
200+ years is a LOT of time to make new babt bison
they were nearly wiped out at one point
Humans were almost exclusively accountable for the near-extinction of the American bison in the 1800s. At the beginning of the century, tens of millions of bison roamed North America. Humans slaughtered an estimated 50 million bison,[41] generally for their meat or hides. The overhunting the bison reduced their population to hundreds. Attempts to revive the American bison have been highly successful. Farming of bison has increased their population to nearly 150,000. The American bison is, therefore, no longer considered an endangered species.[42] The extinction of four species of bison (B. antiquus, B. latifrons, B. occidentalis, and B. priscus) was due to natural selection (see section Evolution and genetic history).
As of July 2015, an estimated 4,900 bison lived in Yellowstone National Park, the largest U.S. bison population on public land
but that whole discussion is off topic
If out of a million people, a few hundred, or a few thousand, don't display the same characteristics of the majority, that doesn't mean it's not characteristic of the species, only that there are a few who go their own way
I'm usually very happy on my own, with a good book, but now and then I do need others around
They don't even need to speak to me, I just sometimes need to share space with other people
