In keeping with the
company’s passion for preserving the spirit of the American West, Original
Log Cabin Homes purchased a small herd of American Buffalo (or bison)
and adopted the animal as the company’s living symbol.
Over the years, the
herd has grown to122 head and the company has established a breeding facility
to perpetuate the species and preserve this great American icon.
Buffalos once roamed
the plains of the West in plentiful herds, but neared extinction in the
late 1800s. The number of buffalos alive at the turn of the century was
estimated to be less than 1,000 animals.
Thanks to generous
supporters and companies like Original Log Cabin Homes, the buffalo is
making a successful comeback. There are now more than 150,000 buffalos
in public and private herds in the U.S. and Canada.
