A Day on a Buffalo Ranch (1912)
This picture was made on a North Dakota ranch where the buffalo is herded. In the first part of the film the capture of a splendid bull is shown. Expert knives work on his dead body which is separated into its chief constituent parts. Some of the ranchers exhibit their prowess as buffalo horsemen, and the rounding up of a great herd affords opportunity for a fine piece of moving picture camera work. The wild animal in captivity is always an attractive subject on the screen; the "captivity" of these ranch-bred buffaloes is, however, of such a nature that by the aid of this picture we are virtually studying the animal in his unfettered state.
