  • Steven Rinella heads into the mountains of the Sonora Desert on a true, wild, free-ranging bison hunt. Steve knows Buffalo, but seeing and stalking these beasts in this dry, stark habitat is very different from anything he’s ever done. But with persistence and patience, he's able to find a herd of one of North America's most iconic animals. Sharing the bounty, Steve experiences a traditional Mexican feast with a table of hungry cowboys. #fueledbynature #MeatEater

    The bile thing is also part of my culture as well. Although we add herbs to the bile and meat before eating. It is respect to the animal, so we try to consume as much as we can, even keeping the bones to make soup broth. This goes for all big game that we harvest. For birds, we do not rip out only the breast. We pluck the bird completely, gut it, then cook the entire thing. I was born in the states and learned this from the elders that immigrated to this country. I still carry the tradition to the younger generations that I hunt with, even though our fore fathers are no longer with us.

      He used 7mm Mag, and I believe it is because a) it is more than sufficient to take any North American Big game animal, and b) inside of about 400 yds, your range and wind estimation are much less critical.

    it is a completely different thing to see hunters that respect and use the whole animal they hunted, and that also understand the cultural setting and the issues that need to be discussed! I am not a hunter and I think I could not kill animals like this one, but this series gives a totally fresh and different perspective about conservation, fairness, cultural values, and about the motivations and worries of the hunter. Great job! ademas no sabia que en Mexico se podia cazar bufalos!

    This show is responsible for how I view what I consume now. I will never EVER be able to shop for meat at any big box store. How can one say that they care for animals, and for the planet if we don't treat what we eat with respect. I was so naive and ignorant of what hunters do, thinking that hunting was just a big game of killing. They are truly the ones who conserve and respect our planet and the animals that God put on earth. I am hoping to learn to hunt this year, but for now, I only shop directly from farmers where I know and see with my own two eyes how the animals live; just like God intended them to. Thank you, Steve, for this show I am sure has opened many people's eyes to what it truly means to eat ethically.

      The Indian thing was factual. The liver is a large storage area for glucose. After strenuous hunting without much pre made food to eat, eating the liver was a good way to replace your own exhausted glucose stores. Also organ meat is the first thing to spoil on a carcass.
