American Bison

[guppiecat]

The twisted curl in the bison horn makes it easier for their horns to lock in combat, as each bull attempts to flip the other. The bull that can complete the largest number of turns in the air and still land on his feet wins control of the herd for the rest of the year.

Bull bison's horns point about straight out while cows curve inward toward each other. It's the easiest way to tell them apart. I believe this one is confused and conflicted about its gender identity.
