I've Never Seen Big Joe Do This!

[@kelviethrasher9436]

I enjoyed seeing big joe and the herd enjoying the snow. It makes me smile seeing them run and jump around having a blast. I live in oklahoma also and we had 3-7 inches of snow and my dogs had fun playing in it.

[@pamelahouser3487]

Watching the bison bouncing and running to and fro in the snow is amazing and entertaining. Glad to see your water reservoir is working and not frozen over. Hysterical to see the feather friends are using the barn for shelter…there’s a cardinal on the rafters…how cool.💕💕🙏🏻🙏🏻👍🏻👍🏻🙋🏼‍♀️

[@johnking8679]

I really enjoy seeing the bison frolicking in the snow. It's very obvious they are not bothered by the snow and they are quite happy with their surroundings !! Thanks for sharing 😊 !!

I like to imagine that once upon a time that tens of thousands played like this on the plains. I mean how majestic these animals are!!!! Thank you for all your hard work and for videoing these majestic animals so that in my life time, I could see them frolic in the snow. Thank you so very much. Love and Peace

[@wakranich3488]

There once was a Million bison roaming the U.S. Read about it, you'll cry.. I hope you'll be eye to eye w/a bison someday. Even though I felt really small after the herd surrounded the car my emotions went from don't kill us to you are so majestic!! A big bull looked in my window & stayed there while walking next to the car for almost a 1/4 mile.

[@bridgetgreene2457]

Glad your watered works well ! Seeing the Herd run and gallop out in the field is so enjoyable ! Seeing Big Joe kick up his back feet and buck around some is so amazing !! He’s such a beauty ! They’ve all got their thicker coats on and it looks great ! Great job on the Ranch and Ponderosa .. and Hoss is looking good also ! Drown shots are absolutely beautiful as always !! Keep up the great videos and God Bless You All for bringing these videos to me in Greeneville Tn ! 🙏

[@dianacox2293]

Dusty thank you for Sharing Big Joe with us. I sure enjoyed watching them romp and play. His tail up in air flying as he ran. They all had a good time. Glad you got a little snow so they got to play. I saw all your birds in your barn rafters. I saw a cardinal I believe at watering hole. Glad to see Hoss. You all take care. Maya honey snow will be gone soon. She acted hesitant to go out in it at first. Thank you.

[@annettebalerio1846]

It was a little funny when you were pouring out the last of the cubes and the bison were jumping around and they were slipping on the ice some. Just gave me a little chuckle is all. Loved watching them all play. They were having so much fun! Thanks for sharing them with us all.

[@realGrandmaBrowne]

oh my Joe sure looks happy! They all do running and playing. As big as they are I imagine the ground was shaking! what a fun drone video-- thanks for all you do.

[@peanutsassyathena]

The cold & snow energizes the Bison. I love to see them show off - they run, then twist that hind end & kick those hooves in the air. It's a Bison party - time to have a blast!

[@kcswolf]

I love watching large animals with their first snow. My German Shepherd acts like a kid in a candy store. Thank you for posting this video, you made my morning.

[@carolharris2357]

Have you seen the Great Pyrenees on Adler Farms? She loves the snow. She looks related to a St. Bernard. So do the Highland cattle he has.

[@jeanburgin160]

Love this ... so frisky and playful. This is special to know these majestic animals are no other place in the world ... Big Joe is awesome for playful. Love how they shake the snow. Looks like ice!

[@bevsplaylist]

I love watching them play in the snow like puppies. I think big Joe heard the drone and was showing off for it. Watching them shake the snow off was to impress you and then the ladies followed suit because they all like to copy each other.

[@dancnluc1]

Such great shots. Big Joe is loving it; along with all the girls. Love seeing the bison running and enjoying themselves. Glad you got your water situated. Here in PA is frozen water for the chickens. The pond is frozen up. Our driveway is like a sheet of ice. I finally keep ice cleats handy because it is no fun falling from the ice. I feed the birds in the winter time only. Of course the squirrels help themselves too.

[@Rumkitty2000]

If you put a pet "Cone of Shame" collar over the Birdhouse, it will keep those thievin' squirrels from getting to the bird feed. P.S. I grew up in PA too. Western PA.

[@dancnluc1]

@@Rumkitty2000 Unfortunately our birdhouses hang from trees. They are little thieves. I guess they need to eat too.

[@Rumkitty2000]

@@dancnluc1 I assumed it did hang from a tree. Wrap it around the string and tape it together so it hangs like an umbrella. The Squirrels can't get traction on the plastic and will slide off.You may have to get a small funnel to cover the opening in the Cone so squirrels can't squeeze through.

[@dancnluc1]

Dusty, that is some great content of the Big Joe herd! It was almost like watching a Wild America episode!!! That's so awesome watching them free & majestic!!! Keep it up Dusty!

[@donnaduda450]

I forgot to mention how much I enjoy seeing Brook "helping" on the ranch ! She's not going to let any grass grow under her feet for sure. What a sweetheart !

[@SunDogDeb]

They love it! Romping like red dogs! It also shows how suited they are for the cold - their coat gives such perfect insulation the snow doesn't melt off their backs!

[@tthappyrock368]

Big Joe trying to decide whether to roll in the snow again or kick up his heels some more 🤣! They sure do love the snow!

[@caroledney3919]

What a great video!!! Loved the drone footage. Big Joe showing off and thanking you for his new home. With the drone camera, it almost looked animated with the contrast of the bison against the stark pasture. Really neat. I agree with you and no snow/below freezing temps for me either, but the bison are enjoying it with gusto!!! The water reservoirs are doing well. You’ve done well in preparing for all the bison with a lot of hard work. Thank you, Kevin, for the update on the “Dunbar” ranch! You are a tremendous asset!! God bless to all and stay safe and well. 🇺🇸MesquiteTX

That's a perfect example of what it looks like to frolic, haha. It's neat to see that side of the bison. They sure looked like they were having a blast!

you need a plastic container with a small rope or something to open it up so you can mount it on the back of your truck and just drive and dump those cubes..Mount a camera in back and watch the fun as you drive along. Such a beautiful animal...you know they love winter...it shows...great video

[@kathywifall6844]

I will always take the snow of winter over the ice storms. I end up having a death grip on the steering wheel. Not sure how much snow we have really received in my area of Minnesota, I know the "drifts" that my snow remover person has pushed up is way past 6 feet. Constant wind also, so I keep getting blown in. My dogs make my trails from the house to the garage, and then I just open them wider. Keep warm, love the drone footage. The bison are in their true element, love how they get "frisky" and their following you.

[@Francieps]

Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU! Reminds me of snow days when I would just run and play with my siblings in the snow. Now that some of my siblings are gone, I miss that. Love Big Joe!

Maya wasn't nearly as impressed by the snow as the bison. So glad about the new waterer.

[@colleendean5172]

They are so wonderful to watch!!! It’s your reward for all your hard work.

[@lindahitt6825]

Something you might consider...and help keep your water that's not frozen clean...is place something in the water trough that will allow the birds to get out of the water, when they fall in, before they drown. I've used a small mesh wire at the edge in my water feeders so they can climb out BUT I don't have buffalo. With all those birds some will fall in. Love your video's. Thanks for sharing with us.

[@sasquatch885]

They’re definitely built for cold weather. I’ve got a traditionally tanned robe that is incredibly thick and warm.👍🏻🇺🇸

[@CrossTimbersBison]

Very cool!

[@teresamariner4238]

My mother, who died in 2007 in her 100th year of life, used to have her parents' Buffalo hide sleigh robe. When she was going through things after my Dad died, she decided to donate it to the Southwest Indian Museum in Los Angeles in my son's name. You brought back a wonderful memory for me with your comment. My son, my only child, died this past October 20, 2021, at only 49, due to his natural pacemaker in his heart giving out. I remember how excited he was to see the sleigh robe, feel the fur, and to see the full sized Indian Teepee they have at the museum. If you ever have to come out to tge LA area you might enjoy seeing the museum. My grandson and I have gone to several local Indian powwows and have felt the soft, thick fur on the Buffalo hide furs.. God bless.
