BISON: THE SUPERIOR RUMINANT

Built to endure the harshest extremes of the American plains, wild bison are among the most resilient land mammals on Earth—famously turning into a storm rather than running from it.

Ounce for ounce, wild bison meat and organs deliver an unparalleled concentration of highly bioavailable protein, vitamins, minerals, essential fats and other nutrients—making this iconic animal the most nutrient-dense source of nourishment the land provides

Specifically, bison has a higher ratio of polyunsaturated fatty acids to saturated fatty acids and three to four times more anti-inflammatory omega-3s than beef. Wild Bison also contain higher amounts of protein, iron, copper, zinc, and vitamins A and B12 than beef.

Bison is a major source of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), providing significantly more CLA than other non-ruminant meat sources such as pork, fish, chicken, and turkey. More specifically, grass fed and finished animals have 300-500% more CLA than grain fed and finished animals. Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) derived from natural sources, like animals, is vastly different from the synthetic CLA found in lab made supplements. Unlike the synthetic CLA found in standard supplements, our natural, animal-derived CLA is built by our Creator to be recognized and fully utilized by your body. Our organ  supplements are just like eating the raw fresh organ as they are exclusively freeze dried, milled and encapsulated. Period. Nothing added, nothing taken out. Pure nutrition just as it was intended.  

So why should you care about CLA? 

CLA is both anti-inflammatory and antioxidant-rich, playing a pivotal role in the prevention of cardiovascular disease and cancer.

Our bison roam freely over thousands of acres, grazing on native prairie grasses under open skies, day and night. They are 100% prairie grass fed from start to finish. In fact, our bison are Certified Grass-Fed By AGW, Regenerative Organic Certified-Silver, USDA Organic, and Audubon Certified Bird Friendly Land. The American bison, is North America's largest herbivore and a keystone species of the grassland ecosystem. When buffalo are allowed to move freely across great swaths of landscape they can feed on native grasses and gently disturb the earth with their hooves, avoiding damage to essential soil structure and overgrazing. Just a few hundred years ago, there were 20-30 million buffalo roaming across our continent. Wild Mamas is committed to helping restore these magnificent mammals by supporting ranchers devoted to raising wild bison the way our Creator intended.

The following is where Wild Mamas truly sets itself apart—rising above the rest and establishing the gold standard for quality, purity, and animal stewardship. Our zero-stress, humane field harvest is a peaceful process that honors and dignifies the animal. It is the way we believe animals should be honored at the end of life and is the way every animal is harvested for Wild Mamas. Our wild bison are never loaded onto transport trucks or subjected to the fear and stress of a slaughterhouse. They remain undisturbed on the open prairie they were born on, among their herd and in the only home they have ever known. When the time comes, our marksman pauses to pray over the animal before quietly and humanely field-harvesting it from a distance—a peaceful, deeply respectful process that honors the animal with dignity until its final moment. The humane field harvest is certainly less efficient and a much higher cost than industry-standard assembly line slaughter systems but an animal's quality of life, down to the final millisecond, is non negotiable to me.
