Better Know: Buffalo



In the 1860s Cody served in the American Civil War and scouted for the U.S. Army. As a scout he roamed around to gather information about the Native Americans. He also hunted buffalo (bison). He got the nickname Buffalo Bill for shooting thousands of buffalo to feed railroad workers.


Similarly, another study found that buffalo milk fat provides small amounts of phenolic compounds and fat-soluble vitamins, including vitamins A and E, all of which have potent antioxidant properties (13).




Better Know: Buffalo



Buffalo were first domesticated in Asia over 6,000 years ago. Today there is a global population of 194 million domesticated buffalo, 97% of which are reared in Asia. Domesticated buffalo are used to pull carts and ploughs and in India, more milk is produced from buffalo than from cows. At the end of their working life, the hides of buffalo are tanned to produce buffalo leather.


Buffalo leather has an epidermal layer up to three times thicker than cow hide which means that it is extremely strong and durable. The buffalo hides are not stretched during the tanning process, unlike cow hide, and therefore they are thicker and more resistant to tearing. Full grain buffalo leather is some of the strongest leather that you can buy.


There are three main types of buffalo: American Buffalo, which are really bison, African Cape Buffalo and Asian Water Buffalo. There is a global domestic buffalo population of 194 million and 97% of these animals are the Asian Water Buffalo. Water buffalo leather is the leather made from the hides of water buffalos which have been reared for agricultural work or dairy production.


Italy has a long tradition of leather work based around Florence and the country is famous for the quality of its craftsmanship. Imported hides, including buffalo hides, are tanned in Italy and transformed into high quality leather goods. Over two-thirds of European leather is produced in Italy.


Top grain leather is full grain leather which has had its imperfections sanded away to produce a regular finish. Buffalo leather is up to three times thicker than cow hide so top grain buffalo leather is still an extremely strong and durable product. All of our Buffalo Leather products at MAHI use top grain.


Buffalo mix leather, also referred to as buffalo split leather, utilises the bottom layer of the hide, which is given a coating to make it smooth. This type of leather is much less durable than full grain or top grain leather, but it is also much cheaper. The term buffalo mix leather can also be used to describe bonded leather, the process by which scraps of leather are glued to polyurethane sheets and then embossed to simulate top grain leather.


Pull up buffalo leather is aniline dyed to create a rich colour and then finished with a mix of transparent waxes and oils. This makes the leather very soft, but the most attractive feature of this treatment is that when the leather is stretched, the colour becomes lighter. Pull up leather assimilates marks and scratches to create a unique patina and the high concentration of oils and fats make it harder for dirt to penetrate. Pull up leather is a popular choice for furniture, shoes, bags and watch straps.


Full grain leather is the top layer of hide with all the natural imperfections left intact. It is the best quality leather you can buy and because buffalo hide has an epidural layer 2 to 3 times thicker than cow hide it is one of the most durable leathers on the market.


Calf leather, also known as calfskin, is a high-quality leather, prized for its softness and fine grain. It is used for lightweight items such as book binding, wallets and the uppers of shoes. By contrast, buffalo leather is a much thicker leather with a coarser grain, it is much stronger and much more durable. Consequently, buffalo leather is better suited to items which will have to work hard such as saddles, motorcycle clothing and bags.


Cow leather is the most widely used leather in the world and accounts for 65% of all leather production. There are 1.5 billion cattle on the planet and cow leather is a by product of the meat and dairy industry. By contrast the global population of buffalo is only 194 million, 97% of which are reared in Asia. Buffalo are used for agricultural work and milk production and like cattle their hides are used by the leather industry. Buffalo hides are two to three times thicker than cowhide and have a more pronounced grain, consequently buffalo leather is stronger and more durable than cow leather and is an attractive alternative for all the items for which cow leather is used.


Lambskin leather is a finely grained leather with a soft buttery texture, it is prized as a material for high end small leather goods like the handbags produced by Chanel and Dior. It is a fragile leather and prone to stains, unlike buffalo leather, which is thick, coarse grained and very durable. If the item in question is required to work hard, then buffalo leather is the obvious choice.

The well was originally dug to serve the Beach Ranch at Cow Creek crossing, providing water for livestock as well as for travelers on the Santa Fe Trail. Sometime after 1860, William Mathewson - who was the original Buffalo Bill - purchased the ranch of Asahel and Abijah Beach, also called the Cow Creek Ranch, and operated it until 1866. Mathewson was known as Buffalo Bill because he helped supply buffalo meat to starving settlers in Kansas Territory during the severe drought of 1859-60. (In later years, the better-known Buffalo Bill, William F. Cody, worked for Masterson.)


"You gotta constantly play confident because you could be one of 30 and have an opportunity at two-minute drive to go win a game and you better be at your best," Dorsey said. "And I think that's a great thing that Josh has is that ability to still, no matter what's happening in the course of the game, be at his best when we need him in critical situations."


"You're always trying to adjust whether it's defensively, offensively or special teams, and I'm counting on our offensive staff," McDermott said. "It's never just one player or one play. It's usually a combination of things. So we got to do a better job overall of making sure it doesn't happen going forward."


In the digital world we live in, there's always a new way to get ahead of the curve. According to triblive.com, Hamlin will be one of the first athletes to get involved with individual trading cards, better known as non-fungible tokens (NFTs). The value can increase as his NFL profile grows.


Buffalo in many ways is like so much of America today, navigating a confluence of social and economic challenges as we address the pandemic environment. Starbucks has not been immune from these challenges, and we have been dedicated across the country for much of the past year to focus on areas the company must improve in many of our stores. There is simply no better way to do this than to double down on our belief in servant leadership, ensuring we meet the expectations of our partners and customers in this next chapter.


Head coach: Sean McDermott. I'm a big Sean McDermott guy. And nothing about what happened last season -- especially those fateful final 13 seconds in regulation in Kansas City -- will change that view. I was thinking at the time it would have been great for Tyler Bass to keep the ball in play on the kickoff after the Bills took a 36-33 lead, which would have forced the Chiefs to run off some clock -- or at least take a knee inside the 10-yard line. And Buffalo should've probably just tackled and held every Chiefs player on that first play from scrimmage; I'm not sure that is within the rules, but it's something I would have done. When you look at that Divisional Round heartbreaker and the regular-season loss to the Patriots -- New England threw three passes! -- you see the Bills getting beat by some NFL legends, Andy Reid and Bill Belichick. They are the two best in the league right now. I really do believe experience is a huge factor in NFL coaching, and McDermott, who is heading into Year 6 in Buffalo, is going to learn from last year and be even better this season.


Allen is one of the most clutch quarterbacks in the NFL. He led the league with a 70.8 completion percentage in the fourth quarter and overtime in the regular season last year. (I know it hurts thinking about what could have happened if the Bills had won that coin toss.) Allen also had 18 passing touchdowns on third and fourth down in 2021. That was tied for the most with Brady. So, I look ridiculous passing on him in fantasy. He's a better big-time quarterback than people give him credit for.


New face to know: Von Miller, defensive end. The Bills signed Miller to a six-year, $120 million contract this offseason. He leads the NFL with 115.5 sacks since 2011. He was acquired by the Rams (from the Broncos) via trade as a mercenary last season, and he dominated in the playoffs. So much so that, if I'm the Bills, I just let him take the first month of the season off and ease his way in. Could you imagine if he wins three Super Bowls with three different teams, after capturing titles in Denver and Los Angeles? Only former NFL linebacker Matt Millen has done it. Actually, Millen wasn't active for that Washington team in Super Bowl XXVI (though he did play the entire regular season for Joe Gibbs' squad), so Von could be the first to appear in and win three Super Bowl games with different teams.


With better weapons on the field and first-year head coach Mike McDaniel on the sideline, will Tua Tagovailoa prove he is Miami's quarterback of the future? Adam Rank checks in on the state of the Dolphins heading into the 2022 NFL season. 2ff7e9595c
