[00:00:00]This [music] animal has injured more people than any bear in North America.

[00:00:07]This is the American bison.

[00:00:11]It weighs over a ton.

[00:00:14]It survives temperatures of minus 50 degrees.

[00:00:18]It was built to endure anything.

[00:00:22]And it looks completely harmless.

[00:00:27]That's exactly what makes it so dangerous.

[00:00:31]No growl.

[00:00:34]No warning.

[00:00:36]It just decides.

[00:00:38]And when it decides you're too close, all that weight becomes speed.

[00:00:46]60 km/h.

[00:00:49]Faster than any human alive.

[00:00:52]By the time you realize what's happening, it's already too late.
