Curtis enjoyed all of the farm animals he got to pet in Shipshewana. One of his favorites was a 900 lb bisen! Check out Curtis feeding this thing. He was not scared at all.
Have you ever seen a tongue that long?
The corn Curtis was feeding the bisen is just like what he feeds Grandma and Grandpa's squirrels. I think he liked the idea of the corn. The bisen took it right out of his hand. The pictures don't do the size of this animal justice. He was huge, but only 2 years old.
They actually sold bisen meat in Shipshewana. The bisen's owner said that it is very popular. They cannot keep up with demand. The meat is $39 a pound!
After awhile, Curtis knew exactly where to go to get the corn. I think he would have fed the bisen corn all day.
