Artistic Buffalo






Chicago started it all with cows; Des Moines has pigs; Michigan has moose; Victoria BC has bears; there are probably others... towns raise money for charities by having retailers sponsor an artist who agrees to put art work on a life-size animal. These artistic masterpieces are then auctioned off (usually the highest bidder is the retail store owner who displays them each summer.) The town of West Yellowstone MT decided to get in on the fun last summer; I had a chance to get a few pics of these buffalo on main street today.
