Still at the Bison farm

Now that we’ve worked out I don’t have to be in Abu Dhabi till the 10th of August, we decided to stay another night and join the Bison farm tour at lunch time.

Ate more bison sausages and got chatting to a lovely Danish couple who made us so proud to be Australian. They said they did a trip to Oz and were so happy to have bumped into very helpful Australians every where they went. Apparently every time they looked lost, someone would ask them if they needed help! Now wasn’t that nice.

When we spoke to them about Mary, the reaction was surprising. They didn’t think of her as Australian as much as being their beautiful Queen. It was cute to see their reaction..that’s right she’s Australian! Very much in love with her.

Back to the tour. We hopped on the back of an open ended truck (never will be done in Oz) and got pulled by a tractor over to see the Bison.

The farmer was very kind and gave us our own English version of the tour. Alpha male is nearly a tonne! The other males are slaughtered when they are about 3yrs old so not many fights. The alpha loses weight during mating season if there are too many males challenging him.

A fun relaxing day.Read more
